Husserl, Weber, Freud, and the Method of the Human Sciences
In the debate between the natural science and the phenomenological or herme neutical approaches in the human sciences, a third alternative described by Husserl has been widely ignored.

Weber's account of prophetic (charismatic) leadership has much in common with, and receives support from, Freud's. However, the point made by several authors, that Weber failed to distinguish …
