Giddens took a stance against the then-dominant <a href="/wiki/Structural_functionalism" title="Structural functionalism">structural functionalism</a> (represented by <a href="/wiki/Talcott_Parsons" title="Talcott Parsons">Talcott Parsons</a>) as well as criticising <a href="/wiki/Evolutionism" title="Evolutionism">evolutionism</a> and <a href="/wiki/Historical_materialism" title="Historical materialism">historical materialism</a>. In <i>Capitalism and Modern Social Theory</i> (1971), he examined the work of <a href="/wiki/Max_Weber" title="Max Weber">Max Weber</a>, <a href="/wiki/%C3%89mile_Durkheim" title="Émile Durkheim">Émile Durkheim</a> and <a href="/wiki/Karl_Marx" title="Karl Marx">Karl Marx</a>, arguing that despite their different approaches each was concerned with the link between <a href="/wiki/Capitalism" title="Capitalism">capitalism</a> and <a href="/wiki/Social_relation" title="Social relation">social life</a>. Giddens emphasised the <a href="/wiki/Social_constructs" class="mw-redirect" title="Social constructs">social constructs</a> of <a href="/wiki/Power_(sociology)" class="mw-redirect" title="Power (sociology)">power</a>, <a href="/wiki/Modernity" title="Modernity">modernity</a> and <a href="/wiki/Institutions" class="mw-redirect" title="Institutions">institutions</a>, defining <a href="/wiki/Sociology" title="Sociology">sociology</a> as such: <span class="nowrap">"[T]he</span> study of social institutions brought into being by the industrial transformation of the past two or three centuries." </p><p>In <i>New Rules of Sociological Method</i> (1976), the title of which alludes to Durkheim's <i>Rules of the Sociological Method</i> of 1895, Giddens attempted to explain how sociology should be done and addressed a long-standing divide between those theorists who prioritise <a href="/wiki/Macrosociology" title="Macrosociology">macro-level</a> studies of social life—looking at the big picture of society—and those who emphasise the <a href="/wiki/Microsociology" title="Microsociology">micro level</a>—what everyday life means to individuals. In <i>New Rules</i>, he noted that the functionalist approach invented by Durkheim treated society as a reality unto itself not reducible to individuals. He rejected Durkheim's <a href="/wiki/Sociological_positivism" class="mw-redirect" title="Sociological positivism">sociological positivism</a> <a href="/wiki/Paradigm" title="Paradigm">paradigm</a> which attempted to predict how societies operate, ignoring the meanings as understood by individuals.<sup id="cite_ref-Gauntlett_online_17-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Gauntlett_online-17"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Giddens noted: "Society only has form, and that form only has effects on people, insofar as structure is produced and reproduced in what people do."<sup id="cite_ref-Gauntlett_18-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Gauntlett-18"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>18<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Giddens contrasted Durkheim with Weber's approach—<a href="/wiki/Interpretative_sociology" class="mw-redirect" title="Interpretative sociology">interpretative sociology</a>—focused on understanding <a href="/wiki/Agency_(philosophy)" title="Agency (philosophy)">agency</a> and motives of <a href="/wiki/Individuals" class="mw-redirect" title="Individuals">individuals</a>. In his analysis, he rejects both of those approaches, stating that while society is not a collective reality, nor should the individual be treated as the central unit of analysis.<sup id="cite_ref-Gauntlett_online_17-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Gauntlett_online-17"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Rather, he uses the logic of <a href="/wiki/Hermeneutic" class="mw-redirect" title="Hermeneutic">hermeneutic</a> tradition from interpretative sociology to argue for the importance of agency in sociological theory, claiming that human social actors are always to some degree acknowledged about what they are doing. <a href="/wiki/Social_order" title="Social order">Social order</a> is therefore a result of some pre-planned social actions, not automatic evolutionary response. Unlike <a href="/wiki/Natural_science" title="Natural science">natural scientists</a>, sociologists have to interpret a social world which is already interpreted by the actors that inhabit it. According to Giddens, there is a <a href="/wiki/Duality_of_structure" title="Duality of structure">duality of structure</a> by which social practice, the principal unit of investigation, has both a structural and an agency-component. The structural environment constrains individual behaviour, but it also makes it possible. He also noted the existence of a specific form of a <a href="/wiki/Social_cycle" class="mw-redirect" title="Social cycle">social cycle</a>. Once sociological concepts are formed, they filter back into everyday world and change the way people think. Because social actors are reflexive and monitor the ongoing flow of activities and structural conditions, they adapt their actions to their evolving understandings. As a result, social scientific knowledge of society will actually change human activities. Giddens calls this two-tiered, interpretive and dialectical relationship between social scientific knowledge and human practices the <a href="/wiki/Double_hermeneutic" title="Double hermeneutic">double hermeneutic</a>. Giddens also stressed the importance of power, which is means to ends, and hence is directly involved in the actions of every person.

He eschews extreme positions, arguing that although people are not entirely free to choose their own actions and their knowledge is limited, they nonetheless are the agency which reproduces the social structure and leads to social change. His ideas find an echo in the philosophy of the modernist poet <a href="/wiki/Wallace_Stevens" title="Wallace Stevens">Wallace Stevens</a>, who suggests that we live in the tension between the shapes we take as the world acts upon us and the ideas of order that our imagination imposes upon the world. Giddens writes that the connection between structure and action is a fundamental element of social theory, <a href="/wiki/Structure_and_agency" title="Structure and agency">structure and agency</a> are a duality that cannot be conceived of apart from one another and his main argument is contained in his expression <i><a href="/wiki/Duality_of_structure" title="Duality of structure">duality of structure</a></i>. At a basic level, this means that people make society, but they are at the same time constrained by it. Action and structure cannot be analysed separately as structures are created, maintained and changed through actions while actions are given meaningful form only through the background of the structure. The line of causality runs in both directions making it impossible to determine what is changing what. In Giddens own words from <i>New Rules</i>, he states: <span class="nowrap">"[S]ocial</span> structures are both constituted by human agency, and yet at the same time are the very medium of this constitution."<sup id="cite_ref-Blackwell_21-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Blackwell-21"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>21<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>In this regard, Giddens defines structures as consisting of rules and resources involving human action. Thus, the rules constrain the actions and the resources make it possible. He also differentiates between systems and structures. Systems display structural properties, but they are not structures themselves. He notes in his article <i>Functionalism: après la lutte</i> (1976) as follows: "To examine the structuration of a <a href="/wiki/Social_system" title="Social system">social system</a> is to examine the modes whereby that system, through the application of generative rules and resources is produced and reproduced in <a href="/wiki/Social_interaction" class="mw-redirect" title="Social interaction">social interaction</a>."<sup id="cite_ref-Blackwell_21-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Blackwell-21"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>21<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>This process of structures producing and re-producing systems is called structuration.

Structuration therefore means that relations that took shape in the structure can exist out of time and place. In other words, independent of the context in which they are created. An example is the relationship between a teacher and a student. When they come across each other in another context, say on the street, the hierarchy between them is still preserved. </p><p>Structure can act as a constraint on action, but it also enables action by providing common frames of meaning.

Giddens suggests that structures (traditions, institutions, moral codes and other sets of expectations—established ways of doing things) are generally quite stable, but they can be changed, especially through the <a href="/wiki/Unintended_consequence" class="mw-redirect" title="Unintended consequence">unintended consequences</a> of action when people start to ignore them, replace them, or reproduce them differently. </p><p>Actors or agents employ the social rules appropriate to their culture, ones that they have learned through socialisation and experience. These rules together with the resources at their disposal are used in social interactions. Rules and resources employed in this manner are not <a href="/wiki/Deterministic" class="mw-redirect" title="Deterministic">deterministic</a>, but they are applied reflexively by knowledgeable actors, albeit that actors' awareness may be limited to the specifics of their activities at any given time.

The growing literacy and popularity of novels fed back into the mainstream lifestyle and the romance novel proliferated the stories of ideal romantic life narratives on a micro-level, giving the romantic love an important and recognised role in the marriage-type relationship. </p><p>Consider also the transformation of intimacy. Giddens asserts that intimate social relationships have become <a href="/wiki/Democratization" title="Democratization">democratised</a> so that the bond between partners—even within a marriage—has little to do with external laws, regulations or social expectations, but instead it is based on the internal understanding between two people—a <a href="/wiki/Trust_(sociology)" class="mw-redirect" title="Trust (sociology)">trusting</a> bond based on emotional communication. Where such a bond ceases to exist, modern society is generally happy for the relationship to be dissolved. Thus, we have "a democracy of the emotions in everyday life" (<i>Runaway World</i>, 1999).<sup id="cite_ref-Gauntlett_18-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Gauntlett-18"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>18<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>A democracy of the emotions—the democratising of everyday life—is an ideal, more or less approximated to in the diverse contexts of everyday life. There are many societies, cultures and contexts in which it remains far from reality—where sexual oppression is an everyday phenomenon. In <i>The Transformation of Intimacy</i>, Giddens introduces the notion of plastic <a href="/wiki/Sexuality" class="mw-redirect" title="Sexuality">sexuality</a>—sexuality freed from an intrinsic connection with reproduction and hence open to innovation and experimentation.<sup id="cite_ref-25" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-25"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>25<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-26" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-26"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>26<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> What was once open only to elites becomes generalised with the advent of mass contraception as sexuality and identity become far more fluid than in the past.

At the same time, we are faced with dangers related to unintended consequences of our actions and by our reliance on the knowledge of experts.

We are increasingly free to choose what we want to do and who we want to be, although Giddens contends that wealth gives access to more options. However, increased choice can be both liberating and troubling. Liberating in the sense of increasing the likelihood of one's self-fulfilment and troubling in form of increased emotional stress and time needed to analyse the available choices and minimise risk of which we are increasingly aware, or what Giddens sums up as the manufacturing uncertainty. While in earlier, traditional societies we would be provided with that narrative and social role, in the post-traditional society we are usually forced to create one ourselves.

Giddens agrees that there are very specific changes that mark our current era. However, he argues that it is not a post-modern era, but instead it is just a "radicalised modernity era"<sup id="cite_ref-29" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-29"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>29<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> (similar to <a href="/wiki/Zygmunt_Bauman" title="Zygmunt Bauman">Zygmunt Bauman</a>'s concept of <a href="/wiki/Liquid_modernity" class="mw-redirect" title="Liquid modernity">liquid modernity</a>), produced by the extension of the same social forces that shaped the previous age. Nonetheless, Giddens differentiates between pre-modern, modern and late or high modern societies and does not dispute that important changes have occurred but takes a neutral stance towards those changes, saying that it offers both unprecedented opportunities and unparalleled dangers. He also stresses that we have not really gone beyond modernity as it is just a developed, <a href="/wiki/Detraditionalise" class="mw-redirect" title="Detraditionalise">detraditionalised</a>, radicalised late modernity. Thus, the phenomena that some have called postmodern are to Giddens nothing more than the most extreme instances of a developed modernity.<sup id="cite_ref-Gauntlett_online_17-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Gauntlett_online-17"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Along with <a href="/wiki/Ulrich_Beck" title="Ulrich Beck">Ulrich Beck</a> and <a href="/wiki/Scott_Lash" title="Scott Lash">Scott Lash</a>, he endorses the term <i><a href="/wiki/Reflexive_modernization" title="Reflexive modernization">reflexive modernisation</a></i> as a more accurate description of the processes associated with the second modernity since it opposes itself in its earlier version instead of opposing traditionalism, endangering the very institutions it created such as the national state, the political parties or the nuclear family. </p><p>Giddens concentrates on a contrast between traditional (pre-modern) culture and post-traditional (modern) culture. In traditional societies, individual actions need not be extensively thought about because available choices are already determined (by the customs, traditions and so on).<sup id="cite_ref-Gauntlett_online_17-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Gauntlett_online-17"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> In contrast, in post-traditional society people (actors or agents) are much less concerned with the precedents set by earlier generations and they have more choices, due to flexibility of law and <a href="/wiki/Public_opinion" title="Public opinion">public opinion</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-Gauntlett_online_17-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Gauntlett_online-17"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> However, this means that individual actions now require more analysis and thought before they are taken. Society is more <a href="/wiki/Reflexivity_(social_theory)" title="Reflexivity (social theory)">reflexive</a> and aware, something Giddens is fascinated with, illustrating it with examples ranging from state governance to intimate relationships.<sup id="cite_ref-Gauntlett_online_17-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Gauntlett_online-17"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Giddens examines three realms in particular, namely the experience of identity, connections of intimacy and political institutions.<sup id="cite_ref-Gauntlett_online_17-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Gauntlett_online-17"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>According to Giddens, the most defining property of modernity is that we are disembedded from time and space. In pre-modern societies, space was the area in which one moved and time was the experience one had while moving. In modern societies, the social space is no longer confined by the boundaries set by the space in which one moves. One can now imagine what other spaces look like even if he has never been there. In this regard, Giddens talks about virtual space and virtual time. Another distinctive property of modernity lies in the field of knowledge. </p><p>In pre-modern societies, it was the elders who possessed the knowledge as they were definable in time and space. In modern societies, we must rely on expert systems. These are not present in time and space, but we must trust them. Even if we trust them, we know that something could go wrong as there is always a risk we have to take. Even the technologies which we use and which transform constraints into means hold risks. Consequently, there is always a heightened sense of uncertainty in contemporary societies. It is also in this regard that Giddens uses the image of a juggernaut as modernity is said to be like an unsteerable juggernaut travelling through space. </p><p>Humanity tries to steer it, but as long as the modern institutions with all their uncertainty endure, then we will never be able to influence its course. The uncertainty can be managed by reembedding the expert-systems into the structures which we are accustomed to. </p><p>Another characteristic is enhanced reflexivity, both at the level of individuals and at the level of institutions. The latter requires an explanation as in modern institutions there is always a component which studies the institutions themselves for the purpose of enhancing its effectiveness. This enhanced reflexivity was enabled as language became increasingly abstract with the transition from pre-modern to modern societies, becoming institutionalised into universities. It is also in this regard that Giddens talks about double hermeneutica as every action has two interpretations. One is from the actor himself, the other of the investigator who tries to give meaning to the action he is observing. However, the actor who performs the action can get to know the interpretation of the investigator and therefore change his own interpretation, or his further line of action. </p><p>According to Giddens, this is the reason that positive science is never possible in the social sciences as every time an investigator tries to identify causal sequences of action, the actors can change their further line of action. However, the problem is that conflicting viewpoints in social science result in a disinterest of the people. For example, when scientists do not agree about the <a href="/wiki/Greenhouse_effect" title="Greenhouse effect">greenhouse effect</a>, people would withdraw from that arena and deny that there is a problem. Therefore, the more the sciences expand, the more uncertainty there is in the modern society. In this regard, the juggernaut gets even more steerless as Giddens states: </p> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1244412712"><blockquote class="templatequote"><p>While emancipatory politics is a politics of life chances, life politics is a politics of lifestyle.

Life politics concerns political issues which flow from processes of self-actualisation in post-traditional contexts, where globalising influences intrude deeply into the reflexive project of the self, and conversely where processes of self-realisation influence global strategies.<sup id="cite_ref-30" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-30"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>30<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup></p></blockquote> <p>In <i>A Contemporary Critique of Historical Materialism</i>, Giddens concludes:<sup id="cite_ref-Blackwell_21-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Blackwell-21"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>21<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <ol><li>There exists no necessary overall mechanism of <a href="/wiki/Social_change" title="Social change">social change</a>, no universal motor of history such as <a href="/wiki/Class_conflict" title="Class conflict">class conflict</a>.</li> <li>There are no universal stages, or periodisation, of social development, these being ruled out by intersocietal systems and "time-space edges" (the ever-presence of <a href="/wiki/Exogenous" class="mw-redirect" title="Exogenous">exogenous</a> variables) as well as by human agency and the inherent <a href="/wiki/Historicity_(philosophy)" title="Historicity (philosophy)">historicity</a> of societies.</li> <li>Societies do not have needs other than those of individuals, therefore notions such as adaptation cannot properly be applied to them.</li> <li>Pre-capitalist societies are class-divided, but only with capitalism there are class societies in which there is <a href="/wiki/Endemic_(ecology)" class="mw-redirect" title="Endemic (ecology)">endemic</a> class conflict, the separation of the political and economic spheres, property freely alienable as capital and "free" labour and <a href="/wiki/Labour_market" class="mw-redirect" title="Labour market">labour markets</a>.</li> <li>While class conflict is integral to capitalist society, there is no <a href="/wiki/Teleology" title="Teleology">teleology</a> that guarantees the emergence of the working class as the universal class and no <a href="/wiki/Ontology" title="Ontology">ontology</a> that justifies denial of the multiple bases of modern society represented by capitalism, <a href="/wiki/Industrialism" class="mw-redirect" title="Industrialism">industrialism</a>, <a href="/wiki/Bureaucratisation" class="mw-redirect" title="Bureaucratisation">bureaucratisation</a>, <a href="/wiki/Surveillance" title="Surveillance">surveillance</a> and <a href="/wiki/Industrialisation" title="Industrialisation">industrialisation</a> of warfare.</li> <li>Sociology, as a subject pre-eminently with modernity, addresses a <a href="/wiki/Reflexivity_(social_theory)" title="Reflexivity (social theory)">reflexive</a> reality.</li></ol> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Third_Way">Third Way</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Anthony_Giddens&amp;action=edit&amp;section=9" title="Edit section: Third Way"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">See also: <a href="/wiki/Third_Way" title="Third Way">Third Way</a></div> <p>In the age of late and <a href="/wiki/Reflexive_modernity" class="mw-redirect" title="Reflexive modernity">reflexive modernity</a> and <a href="/wiki/Post-scarcity_economy" class="mw-redirect" title="Post-scarcity economy">post-scarcity economy</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Political_science" title="Political science">political science</a> is being transformed.

Information gathering is known as the concept of individuation. Individuality comes as a result of individuation as people are given more informed choices. The more information the government has about a person, the more entitlements are given to the citizens. The process of information gathering helps government to identify <a href="/wiki/Enemies_of_the_state" class="mw-redirect" title="Enemies of the state">enemies of the state</a>, singling out individuals that are suspected of plotting activities against the state. The advent of technology has brought <a href="/wiki/National_security" title="National security">national security</a> to a completely new level.

The analysing of algorithm patterns in biometric databases have given government new leads. Data about citizens can be collected through identification and credential verification companies.

Given that is the case, he asks why are countries around the world doing so little to counter its advance. Many reasons are involved, but the prime one is the historical novelty of humanly induced climate change itself. No previous civilisation intervened into nature on a level remotely similar to that which we do on an everyday level today. We have no previous experience of dealing with such an issue and especially one of such global scope, or of the dangers it poses. Those dangers hence appear as abstract and located at some indefinite point in the future. Giddens's paradox consists of the following theorem. We are likely put off responding adequately to climate change until major catastrophes unequivocally connected to it occur, but by then by definition it would be too late, for we have no way of reversing the build-up of greenhouses gases that is driving the transformation of the world's climate. Some such gases would be in the atmosphere for centuries. </p><p>Within 'The Politics of Climate Change' Giddens places attention on global environmental conferences such as the 1997 Kyoto summit, whereby an agreement was drawn up so that developed countries would cut their emissions by an average of 5.2 per cent. The Kyoto protocol was to become a part of international law, and the developed countries who accounted for at least 55 per cent of total emissions from the industrial states, would have to sign up.<sup id="cite_ref-46" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-46"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>46<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>In his latest work, Giddens has returned to the subject of the <a href="/wiki/European_Union" title="European Union">European Union</a>, discussed in 2007 in his book <i>Europe in the Global Age</i><sup id="cite_ref-47" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-47"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>47<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> and in a diversity of articles.

However, he also emphasised that European Union "could still founder, even disintegrate, the result of a chain reaction of circumstances that member states were unable to control".<sup id="cite_ref-Giddens,_Anthony_2014_48-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Giddens,_Anthony_2014-48"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>48<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> In December 2014, <i>Turbulent and Mighty Continent</i> was awarded the <a href="/wiki/European_Book_Prize" title="European Book Prize">European Book Prize</a>, awarded by a selection jury featuring members from many different countries.<sup id="cite_ref-49" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-49"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>49<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>In recent years, while continuing to pursue some of the core themes of his earlier works he has become preoccupied with the impact of the <a href="/wiki/Digital_Revolution" class="mw-redirect" title="Digital Revolution">Digital Revolution</a> on world society and on everyday life.<sup id="cite_ref-50" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-50"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>50<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> That revolution, he argues, must not be identified solely with the advent of the internet, extraordinary although that is. Rather, the Digital Revolution is a massive wave of change washing across the world, driven by the interrelation between the <a href="/wiki/Internet" title="Internet">Internet</a>, <a href="/wiki/Robotics" title="Robotics">robotics</a> and <a href="/wiki/Supercomputers" class="mw-redirect" title="Supercomputers">supercomputers</a>. It is huge algorithmic power—available to the billions of people who already possess <a href="/wiki/Smartphones" class="mw-redirect" title="Smartphones">smartphones</a>—that connects the other two. </p><p>Giddens sees the pace and global scope of such revolution as unprecedented in human history and we are probably only in its early stages.<sup id="cite_ref-51" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-51"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>51<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Many see the Digital Revolution as primarily producing endless diversity and as acting to dissolve pre-existing institutions and modes of life. Giddens emphasises that from its beginnings it has been bound up with power and large-scale structures too. It is deeply bound up with American global power and has physical form, depending as it does upon global satellite systems and systems, underground cables and concentrations of supercomputers. <a href="/wiki/GPS_navigation_device" class="mw-redirect" title="GPS navigation device">GPS</a> has its origins in super-power rivalry between the United States and what was then the <a href="/wiki/Soviet_Union" title="Soviet Union">Soviet Union</a>. The digital universe is also funded by mass advertising and expresses the dominance of large corporations in the <a href="/wiki/World_economy" title="World economy">world economy</a>. </p><p>The Digital Revolution forms an important part of Giddens's recent preoccupation with the emergence of the high opportunity, high risk society.<sup id="cite_ref-52" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-52"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>52<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> For example, the advent of such revolution promises fundamental advances in core areas of medicine. New threats and problems abound, both in our everyday lives and in the larger institutions of our societies.<sup id="cite_ref-53" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-53"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>53<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Scientists can communicate with one-another in a direct way across the world. The overlap of supercomputers and genetics means that genetic structures can be decoded instantaneously, promising huge advances in conquering major diseases. Medical practice is likely to be transformed through remote monitoring and other digital innovations. At the same time, the overlap of the Digital Revolution with criminality, violence and war is pervasive and dangerous. Military drones are just one example of the continuing involvement of the Digital Revolution with war. </p><p>Emerging developments in <a href="/wiki/Artificial_intelligence" title="Artificial intelligence">artificial intelligence</a> look likely to propel these changes into a new phase of social transformation, whose outlines at present remain hazy, but which look certain to be quite profound. Supercomputers are becoming more and more powerful in terms of their capacity to handle immense amounts of data while <a href="/wiki/Quantum_computers" class="mw-redirect" title="Quantum computers">quantum computers</a>, with even greater processing capacity, loom on the horizon. At the same time, deep learning—artificial neural networks capable of innovative thinking—is fast advancing. A world-wide debate is going on about how far artificial intelligence can match, or even surpass, human intellectual capabilities. Artificial intelligence and geopolitics, Giddens says, are converging all over again "as the circle of change comes back to its point of origin".<sup id="cite_ref-54" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-54"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>54<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> In the meantime, China is pouring resources into the further development of artificial intelligence and currently possesses the world's most advanced supercomputer. </p><p>Giddens was a member of the House of Lords Select Committee on artificial intelligence which reported in April 2018.<sup id="cite_ref-55" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-55"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>55<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> The committee put forward a variety of suggested reforms to apply not only in the United Kingdom, but potentially much more widely as well. These should take place within a common ethical framework to guide intervention on the part of government and of the digital corporations themselves. The power of the digital mega-corporations must be curtailed and subjected to democratic governance, challenging and problematic though such an endeavour is. Artificial intelligence should be developed for the common good. It should follow principles of transparency and fairness and never be allocated the autonomous capability to harm human actors. The major nations and transnational agencies should work towards ensuring that such principles are incorporated into their own codes and practices and applied on a transnational level. The worry is that an artificial intelligence arms race would develop as countries jostle to take the lead both in artificial intelligence generally and in its application to weaponry of diverse sorts. In a much-publicised speech given in 2017, Russian President <a href="/wiki/Vladimir_Putin" title="Vladimir Putin">Vladimir Putin</a> observed of advances in artificial intelligence that "whoever becomes the leader in this sphere will become the ruler of the world".<sup id="cite_ref-56" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-56"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>56<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> If there is a jostling for advantage among the major powers, concerns of ethics and safety may fall by the wayside in the scramble for advantage, adding to the stresses and strains already visible in the international order. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Honours">Honours</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Anthony_Giddens&amp;action=edit&amp;section=13" title="Edit section: Honours"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Giddens was appointed to a <a href="/wiki/Life_peer" title="Life peer">life peerage</a> on 16 June 2004 as <b>Baron Giddens</b>, <i>of <a href="/wiki/Southgate,_London" title="Southgate, London">Southgate</a> in the <a href="/wiki/London_Borough_of_Enfield" title="London Borough of Enfield">London Borough of Enfield</a></i><sup id="cite_ref-auto_14-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-auto-14"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> and sits in the House of Lords for the <a href="/wiki/Labour_Party_(UK)" title="Labour Party (UK)">Labour Party</a>. </p><p>He was elected a <a href="/wiki/Member_of_the_Academia_Europaea" title="Member of the Academia Europaea">member of the Academia Europaea</a> in 1993.<sup id="cite_ref-57" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-57"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>57<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> He is also a fellow of the <a href="/wiki/American_Academy_of_Arts_and_Sciences" title="American Academy of Arts and Sciences">American Academy of Arts and Sciences</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Chinese_Academy_of_Social_Sciences" title="Chinese Academy of Social Sciences">Chinese Academy of Social Sciences</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-58" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-58"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>58<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-59" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-59"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>59<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 1999, he was made a <a href="/wiki/Grand_Cross" title="Grand Cross">Grand Cross</a> of the <a href="/wiki/Order_of_Prince_Henry" title="Order of Prince Henry">Order of Prince Henry the Navigator</a> by the <a href="/wiki/Portugal" title="Portugal">Portuguese</a> government.<sup id="cite_ref-60" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-60"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>60<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Giddens received the <a href="/wiki/Princess_of_Asturias_Awards" title="Princess of Asturias Awards">Prince of Asturias Award</a> for Social Sciences in 2002.<sup id="cite_ref-61" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-61"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>61<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>In June 2020 it was announced that Giddens had been awarded the Arne Naess Chair and Prize at the <a href="/wiki/University_of_Oslo" title="University of Oslo">University of Oslo</a>, Norway, in recognition of his contributions to the study of environmental issues and climate change.
