AB - As the danger of globalisation increases since 9/11, this article examines Ulrich Beck's concept of world risk society from a per- spective of international relations. His concept provides a sociological perspective that is fundamentally different from functionalism. While the focus of functionalism is on the ontological aspect of risk, the concept put more emphasis on the epistemological ones; that is, how risks are perceived and recognised. By putting risks into historical and geographical contexts, it enhances the understanding of the historically specific (i.e., 'modern') nature of risks. Furthermore, his critique of methodologi- cal nationalism help us capture the implications of environmental and ecological movements on nation-states and the world politics
