The present study tries to examine Max Weber’s famous technical term „disenchantment” and the rationalization of religion along with the receptions of Christofer Adair-Toteff, Hans Joas and Jürgen Habermas. First Adair-Toteff summarizes the general meaning concerning the rationalization in the concept of Weber by reflecting critically on the most important authors. Secondly, Hans Joas followed historically the genealogy and the inherent dynamic of the term and idea of „Entzauberung” (disenchantment). He focuses on the central question of sociology of religion, whether it is possible to describe and analyze the role of religion in modern societies by employing the Weberian concepts of disenchantment and rationalization. Thirdly and lastly, Jürgen Habermas, similarly to Jonas, offers an alternative understanding of the linear process of secularization and rationalization. We hope that through the examination of the three different receptions have contributed to the contemporary discourse concerning Weber’s theory of religion in Hungary
