Arrange these interventions in the modernity debate, earliest first.

1. Lyotard publishes La condition postmoderne
2. Jameson’s essay on postmodernism as a cultural logic appears
3. Beck’s Risk Society is published in German
4. Harvey publishes The Condition of Postmodernity
5. Giddens publishes The Consequences of Modernity
6. Bauman publishes Liquid Modernity

Harvey and Giddens appear a year apart and reach opposite conclusions from overlapping evidence, one reading the change as a new regime of accumulation with a matching culture, the other as modernity’s own dynamics accelerating. Reading them as contemporaries rather than as a sequence makes the disagreement visible.
