Theoretical Construction, liquid modernity, Zygmunt Bauman, contemporary Western political thoughtAbstract
The Polish thinker Zygmunt Bauman introduced the term liquid modernity in his book Liquid Modernity, and then followed it with several works known as the Liquidity Theory, in which he criticizes contemporary human life in its various aspects of the Western postmodern era. He presented a theoretical construction for this term, which included intellectual connotations and structural manifestations. Therefore, the research was organized into two sections. The first revealed the intellectual connotations of liquid modernity, and the second clarified the structural manifestations of Iiquid modernity .
