The essence of modernity, argues Ringmar (government, London School of Economics, UK), is the ability to undergo continuous social, political, and cultural changes. He proposes a model of change that rests upon the idea that change is brought about through the institutionalization of "reflection, entrepreneurship and pluralism" and applies it to modernization processes in Europe, China, and Japan in order to explain their different societal paths.
