Summary/Abstract: In the 1970s the word globalisation came into use; the word or term sustainable development in the 1990s, while the word and term risk and global risk society began to be used somewhat later. Therefore, these terms are newer terms in sociology, which have very rapidly become science paradigms and analytic categories. This has happened because we live in a very rapid globalised world, in which large changes influence all areas of social and individual life to the extent which allows us to say that the contemporary global society in fact represents a global risk society, that is, a society of global risk and unsustainable development, which jeopardise health among other things.
