“…Whilst his appreciation of ambiguity and consideration of conflicting futures opened him up to charges of theoretical inconsistency, such sideswipes largely missed the point. Like his contemporary Zygmunt Bauman, Beck cannot be accurately remembered as either an optimist, or a pessimist (see Campbell et al, 2018). Indubitably, his sanguine manner powered pulsating strands of hope that animated his work, but he was, at heart, very much a pragmatist.…”
