Reflexivity and entrepreneurial articulation in contemporary society: can we make different?

At the beginning of this new century, several contemporary questions lead us to reflect on "which are the main public matters for the community and the concern-keys of the subjects nowadays". Wouldn't these matters and concerns interrelated to a reflexive sight of the world? The Theory of Structure by Anthony Giddens offers us the initial inspiration in order to reflect about the relation agency-structure. Ulrich Beck's reflexives ideas showed us that, either we notice it or not, reflexivity is something inherent to our age. The entrepreneurial articulation in such reflexive way appears as a possible reflexive (re)action and, in consequence, phenomenon to be studied. How that can happens in a contemporary society? This is the principal question about which we reflect theoretically based in the research carried through.
