New Public Management and the Ghost of Max Weber

When someone once complained to German polymath, Max Weber, that his writings were extremely difficult to read, he responded by asking why they should be easy to read when they were so difficult for him to write. Whether or not this quip actually came from Weber’s lips, it can be safely asserted that many of those who know of Weber’s writings have read commentaries on them rather than the original texts
