Conclusions and Perspectives. 330 $aThis book outlines and systematises findings from a growing body of research that examines the different rationales, dimensions and dynamics of risk-taking in current societies; providing insight into the different motivations and social roots of risk-taking to advance scholarly debates and improve social regulation. Conceptually, the book goes beyond common approaches which problematise socially undesirable risk-taking, or highlight the alluring character of risk-taking. Instead, it follows a broadly interpretivist approach and engages in examining motives, control, routinisation, reflexivity, skills, resources, the role of identity in risk-taking and how these are rooted in and framed by different social forces. Zinn draws on qualitative studies from different theoretical and conceptual backgrounds such as phenomenology, hermeneutics, pragmatism, feminism, class analysis, theory of practice and discourse analysis among others, to outline key distinctionsand concepts central to the understanding of risk-taking. It will be a key resource for everyone who is concerned with the understanding and management of risk-taking in all kinds of social domains, such as immigration, youth, leisure sports, crime, health, finance, and social policy. 410 0$aCritical Studies in Risk and Uncertainty,$x2523-7276 606 $aSociology 606 $aSocial sciences$xPhilosophy 606 $aCulture 606 $aSociological Theory 606 $aSocial Theory 606 $aSociology of Culture 615 0$aSociology. 615 0$aSocial sciences$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aCulture. 615 14$aSociological Theory. 615 24$aSocial Theory. 615 24$aSociology of Culture. 676 $a300.1 676 $a302.12 700 $aZinn$b Jens O$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0917985 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910370038003321 996 $aUnderstanding Risk-Taking$92543478 997 $aUNINA
