The sexual revolution: an evocative term, but what meaning can be given to it today? How does sexuality come into being, and what connections does it have with the changes that have affected personal life more generally? In answering these questions, the author disputes many of the dominant interpretations of the role of sexuality in modern culture.\nThe author suggests that the revolutionary changes in which sexuality has become caugth up are more long-term than generally conceded. He sees them as intrinsic to the development of modern societies as a whole and to the broad characteristics of that development. Sexuality as we know it today is a creation of modernity, a terrain upon which the contradictory tendencies of modern social life play themselves out in full. Emancipation and oppression, opportunity and risk -- these have become a part of a heady mix that irresistably ties our individual lives to global outcomes and the transformation of intimacy.
