Size: Paperback

For this important selection from Weber, sections of text from Weber's major works (
Gesammelte, Aufsatze Zur Religionssoziologie
, including
The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism; General Economic History
; and
The Agrarian Sociology of Ancient Civilisations
) have been carefully edited and substantially translated to form a coherent and integrated volume.
Professor Andreski's aim has been to use Weber's own works to explain crucial turns in the evolution of societies and cultures, while eliminating the difficulties of language and frequent mistranslation which have previously made Weber so difficult and baffling for students new to his work.
An essay by Andreski introduces the selections, which are centred on Weber's principal interest, the relationship between capitalism, religion and bureaucracy. He seeks to correct those misinterpretations of Weber's work which have stressed his classification, rather than his attempts to theorise and explain social phenomena on the basis of a comparitive analysis of universal historical trends.
This book was first published in 1983.
