Summary/Abstract: In this paper, I present an analysis of modern society, which under the influence of indicators of modernization and globalization produces risks that affect people globally with increasing uncertainty and uncertainty. Starting from Beck’s ideas, the conceptual understanding of risk is pointed out, including the concept of contemporary world events related to the emergence of COVID-19. The historical aspects of the modernization of aid to science and technological innovation and the role of capitalism, which has its foundations in this for the purpose of maximizing profits and increasing risk, are pointed out. I explain the triangulation of the terms globality, globalism and globalization and their connection with neoliberal ideology. Te wants to show how such processes have made it difficult to control and respond to COVID-19.
