Rationalization in Max Weber's Developmental History
Max Weber&s;s sociology as a whole, and his sociology of religion in particular, does not aim to formulate a theory of rationality. Instead it represents a typology of religious rationalism considered from the perspective of his developmental history. However, before considering Weber&s;s typology of rationalism and the different ways and forms through which it has had an impact on the processes of historical development. Weber&s;s systematic sta…

Max Weber's Jewish stereotype of the "Knalljude" in regard to persons and a Rembrandt painting
[MWS 12.2 (2012) 241-246] ISSN 1470-8078 Max Weber's Jewish stereotype of the Knalljude in regard to persons and a Rembrandt painting Guenther Roth As a well-known opponent of political and social antisemitism Max Weber felt free to use Jewish stereotypes, current at the time, with out fear of being misunderstood. Thus he used the stereotype Knal Ijuden not only in private letters to Helene and Marianne Weber and Sophie Rickert, but also in a let…

Edgar Jaffé E Else Von Richthofen À Luz De Cartas Recém-Descobertas
O artigo conta a história de Edgar Jaffé e Else von Richthofen em seus círculos sociais e intelectuais, dos quais participaram, entre outros, Max e Marianne Weber. O relato se baseia na correspondência do casal Jaffé/von Richthofen, durante os anos de 1902 e 1918, descoberta pelo autor, em Nova York, com o neto Christopher Jeffrey, que doou mais de mil cartas para o Leo Baeck Institute, em 2009. A narrativa permite ao leitor entender os dramas de…
Edgar Jaffé and Else von Richthofen in the Mirror of Newly Found Letters
Political historians have dealt mostly and critically with Edgar Jaffé's participation in the Bavarian Revolution of 1918/19, and only peripherally with his achievements as economist, publisher and editor. Among social scientists Edgar Jaffé (1866-1921), is still known, if mainly as a name, as editor, linked with the names of Max Weber and Werner Sombart, of the leading social science journal of its time, Archiv für Sozialwissenschaft und Sozialp…
Der politische Kontext von Max Webers Beitrag über die deutsche Wirtschaft in der Encyclopedia Americana / The Political Context of Max Weber’s Contribution on the German Economy in the Encyclopedia A…
Für die Encyclopedia Americana verfaßte Max Weber 1905 einen Beitrag über die deutsche Wirtschaft, der bis vor kurzem unbekannt war. Hugo Münsterberg, der Herausgeber der dreiundzwanzig Beiträge über Deutschland, rekrutierte als zweiten Ökonomen Ernst von Halle, Admiral Tirpitz’ „publizistisches Sprachrohr“ für den kaiserlichen Schlachtflottenbau. Damit hatte er zwei hervorragende Verfechter einer imperialistischen Weltpolitik ausgewählt. Neben s…
Max Weber's Articles on German Agriculture and Industry in the "Encyclopedia Americana" (1906/1907) and their Political Context
Recently two lengthy entries by Max Weber on German agriculture and industry were discovered in the Encyclopedia Americana of 1906/1907. They appear to be the only articles Weber wrote for a broad anglophone readership, apart from the poorly translated lecture at the Congress of Arts and Science in St. Louis in 1904. As economic experts Hugo Muensterberg, the organizer of the 23 contributions on Germany, chose two leading advocates of imperialist…
Max Weber, Scion of the Cosmopolitan Bourgeoisie: Historical Context and Present-Day Relevance
Transatlantic Connections: A Cosmopolitan Context for Max and Marianne Weber's New York Visit 1904
Max Weber's Amerikabild, his 'picture' of the United States, was first shaped by the 1848 exile Friedrich Kapp (1824–1884), a leader of the German Republicans in New York, who after his return in 1870 became a close family friend and a paternal mentor. The first section sketches the relations between Friedrich Kapp and Max Weber senior, and also their sons, in the context of the global economic developments before the First World War. The second …
The Near-Death of Liberal Capitalism: Perceptions from the Weber to the Polanyi Brothers
Karl Polanyi and Max Weber held radically different views of liberal capitalism, but they also came to differ in significant respects with their brothers Michael Polanyi and Alfred Weber. The first section provides an overview of some critical moments in the history of liberal capitalism as perceived by some historical witnesses. The second treats the views of the Weber brothers on the world economy before 1914. The third deals with Max Weber's o…

Economy and Society
Personal Rulership, Patrimonialism, and Empire-Building in the New States
The concrete lessons of recent history have helped us to appreciate the paramount importance of the political preconditions of social and economic development in the new states. The basic problem of political stability must be solved before all others-or everything else may be in vain. For this reason, some of the scholarly attention that used to be focused on social and economic development has shifted to political organization and has given pro…

Weber's Protestant Ethic: Origins, Evidence, Contexts
The historical relationship between Protestantism, capitalism, and democracy remains one of the most controversial intellectual themes of out time. Max Weber's famous thesis about the link between the 'Protestant ethic' and the 'spirit of capitalism' and its dissolution in his own era has been both widely acclaimed and heatedly disputed since its publication in 1904–5. This volume, the result of an international, interdisciplinary effort, throws …
Max Weber: Family History, Economic Policy, Exchange Reform
This article suggests that Weber's cosmopolitan dimension has much to do with his extended family history, which has been relatively neglected even though it influenced his world view and oeuvre in significant respects. It first sketches the cosmopolitan family context and then turns to Weber's political and scholarly agenda, especially the little-known story of his strong political and professional engagement in the battle over exchange reform i…

Interpreting and Translating Max Weber
Proceeding from Schleiermacher's distinction between mere interpreting and genuine translating, I argue that much of social science requires only 'technical' interpreting ( Dolmetschen) rather than 'creative' translating. In Max Weber's case, matters are made easier by the fact that he stayed within a recognisable pattern of international scholarship. He had actual and elective affinities with the Anglo-Saxon world, especially in politics and eth…

Legitimation of Social Rights and the Western Welfare State: A Weberian Perspective
This discerning and timely study revitalizes Weber's ideas, applying them to welfare state redistributions and synthesizing them with major issues in political science, law, public administration, social welfare policy, and philosophy. Friedman depicts both the emergence of the welfare state in Britain and the United States and the special problems of legitimizing social rights raised by the need for administration of those rights. Originally pub…

why particular systems change or endure. In other words it is the latter interpretation of his question he wishes to discuss. But to answer this question demands not simply a treatise on the internal mechanics of political systems but also the consideration of why (in his terms) the authoritative allocation of values in society is always necessary. The societal sources of politics are of at least equal importance to the explanation of the persist…

Max Weber's Empirical Sociology in Germany and the United States: Tensions between Partisanship and Scholarship
More than any other man of his generation Max Weber remains today influential as well as controversial. Neither intellectually nor politically are scholars done with the man and his work. However, his impact has not been steady over the five decades since his death. At various times Emile Durkheim, Georg Simmel, Ferdinand Tönnies, Robert Michels, Vilfredo Pareto, and Sigmund Freud have attarcted more attention and approbation. Among these members…
