Risk Society - From the Terror of Unsafety to Antropology of Fear

Abstract

The aim of this work, in the frame of the theoretical aparatus of the insecurity, is to explain the main BH social scenes in which ontological insecurity could be perceived objectified through mass defeat and helplessness of majority of population.

The fear resultanta of this obvious state is socially construced fear which must be distinguished from reasonable fear, in sense of human emotion. Fear, socially constructed by manipulatory strategies, is no more concerned in pshylogical references and has become socio-cultural fact.

Distinction between respectfulfear and fear, created by long-term insecurity, has resulted in the fact that respectful fear is institutionalised as legitimate means of authority and compulsion. In this way, for situation which causes fear, or which is source of unexplainable fear, it is possible to accuse anybody expect those create fear.
