Max Weber - Achievements: Encyclopedia II - Max Weber - Achievements

Max Weber was – along with Karl Marx, Vilfredo Pareto and Émile Durkheim – one of the founders of modern sociology. Whereas Pareto and Durkheim, following Comte, worked in the positivist tradition, Weber created and worked – like Werner Sombart, his friend and then the most famous representative of German sociology – in the antipositivist, idealist and hermeneutic tradition. Those works started the antipositivistic revolution in social sciences, which stressed the difference between the social sciences and natural sciences, especial ...

Max Weber - Achievements: Encyclopedia II - 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 ...

Weber was born in Erfurt in Thuringia, Germany, the eldest of seven children of Max Weber Sr., a prominent politician and civil servant, and his wife Helene Fallenstein. His younger brother Alfred Weber was also a sociologist and economist. Because of his father's engagement with public life, Weber grew up in a household immersed in politics, and his father received a long list of prominent scholars and public figures in his salon. At the same time, Weber proved to be intellectually precocious. His Christmas present to his parents in 1876, w ...

Max Weber - Achievements: Encyclopedia - Asceticism

Asceticism denotes a life which is characterized by refraining from worldly pleasures (austerity). Those who practice ascetic lifestyles often perceive their practices as virtuous and pursue them to achieve greater spirituality. Many ascetics believe the action of purifying the body helps to purify the soul, and thus obtain a greater connection with the Divine. In a more cynical context, ascetic may connote some form of self-mortification, ritual punishment of the body or harsh renunciation of pleasure. However the word certain ...

Max Weber - Achievements: Encyclopedia - State

A state is an organized political community occupying a definite territory, having an organized government, and possessing internal and external sovereignty. Recognition of the state's claim to independence by other states, enabling it to enter into international agreements, is often important to the establishment of its statehood, although some theories do not make this a requirement - for instance, the Montevideo Convention. The "state" can also be defined in terms of domestic conditions, specifically, as conceptualized by Max Weber ...

Robert K. Merton - Theories of the middle range.

Max Weber - Achievements: Encyclopedia II - Protestant work ethic - Max Weber

In The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism (1904-1905, Eng. trans. 1930) Max Weber argued for an intimate, causal connection between a Calvinist ascetic ideal and the rise to prominence of capitalist institutions. Weber held that the devotion to work and rational conduct that was one of the fundamental elements of capitalism and modernity derived, at least in part, from the Puritan effort to turn work into a spiritual vocation: One of the fundamental elements of the spirit of modern capitalism, and not only o ...
