Max Weber - Attacks from conservatives
Despite, or perhaps because of, Weber's influence on modern economics and sociology, aspects of his work have been criticised.
During his own lifetime, Weber was critical of the neoclassical economic approaches of authors such as Carl Menger and Friedrich von Weiser, whose formal approach was quite different from his own historical sociology. The work of these authors eventually led to the creation of the Austrian School of economics, and it is not surprising that today those influenced by that school continue to take issue with Weber's work. This includes followers of Friedrich von Hayek and, more recently, authors Daniel Yergin and Joseph Stanislaw. In their pro-globalization book Commanding Heights: The Battle for the World Economy, they attack Weber for claiming that only Protestantism could lead to a work ethic, pointing to the "Tiger Economies" of Southeastern Asia. On the other hand, Ludwig von Mises, Hayek's teacher and a key figure in the Austrian School, was sympathetic to Weber's work; and another of Mises's pupils, the philosopher Alfred Schutz, was substantially influenced by Weber at least as much as by Austrian School thought.
Similarly, Weber's 'Protestant Ethic' thesis has been criticised by many historians of the period. In his biography of Benjamin Franklin, for instance, Walter Isaacson dismissed Weber's work on the Protestant ethic as a "Marxist" argument despite Weber's criticism of many of Marx's ideas.
Modernly, Weber's blending of economics with Calvinism has been satirized by such works as "America's Keenest City" by Mongo.
