Abstract

This paper outlines a research process that explores the relationship between Ulrich Becks reflexive modernity and sustainable development. Sustainable development is becoming increasingly prolific throughout society yet there remains a lack of empirical work that is capable of exploring the complexity and ambiguity of the terms meaning. There is a significant need to design and implement effective methodological approaches that are capable of addressing the highly complex, non linear and ambiguous issue that relate to sustainable development. The following paper will detail a research methodology that attempts to grapple with this complexity.
