9781607960980: The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism

Inhaltsangabe

This brilliant study opposes the Marxist concept of dialectical materialism and its view that change takes place through the conflict of opposites. Instead, Weber relates the rise of a capitalist economy to the Puritan determination to work out anxiety over salvation or damnation by performing good deeds - an effort that ultimately encouraged capitalism.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Max Weber (1864-1920) was a German sociologist, historian, and political economist whose work laid the foundations for modern social theory. His writings address the relationship between culture, religion, and economic life, as well as broader questions of authority, bureaucracy, and rationalisation. Among his most influential works are The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism and Economy and Society. Weber's ideas continue to shape the study of sociology and the analysis of modern institutions.
