By this way, we develop important conceptual elements of this sociological theory that until now has been exposed in a few times for the doctrinary, some of them are the process of “cosmopolitization”, the approach of the “end of the other” and “reflexive modernization”. They reveal the politic potential of the risk of sociology of Beck. By this angle we approach in a panoramic way the precautionary principle with the purpose of settled which is the relation social-theoric with the risk society theory.
