This paper analyzes Ulrich Beck’s last book, La metamorfosi del mondo, first giving a definition of the word ‘metamorphosis’ and then showing how this category is strictly linked to the well known concept of ‘risk’, previously formulated by the German sociologist. By highlighting some chapters of the book (the role of cities in the contemporary era and the climatic changes), the author seeks to show how the metamorphosis creates a dialogical space, made of responsibilities, where it is possible to image new horizons of human rights protection, new warranties for the weakest, new forms of socio-political participation, beyond the national State.
Keywords: Metamorphosis, Risk, Beck, City, State, Vulnerable law
