This paper aims to introduce the theme and contents of Anthony Giddens' The Transformation of Intimacy published in 1992, explain the position which it occupies in the development of his social theory, and show central problems in social theory of intimate relationship. 1) Intimacy is the chracteristic of intimate relationship. Intimate relationship is formed through interactions on the base of sexuality. The transformation of intimacy is the change from romantic love to confluent love which is unconcerned with the myth of romantic love. This change in personal life will reform macro social order. 2) The position of The Transformation of Intimacy in the development of Giddens' social theory is explained from three viewpoints, namely, the structuration theory, the sociology of gender-problem, and the theory of modernity. 3) Social theory of intimate relationship will be developed by solving some basic problems. For example, what kind of social relationship is the intimate one?, how canwe estimate the significance of modern family?, and so on.
