Description

One of the world’s preeminent Max Weber scholars here presents a comprehensive analysis of Weber’s ambiguous stance toward modernity considered from a normative, theoretical, and historical point of view.
The book is in two parts. Part One scrutinizes Weber’s worldview. On the basis of his thinking about the meaning and interrelationships of science, politics, and ethics in the modern era, Weber is seen as the embodiment of a social scientist and political thinker who exposes himself to intellectual risks and existential tensions while resisting final solutions. His unceasing dedication to social science and to the politics of responsibility went hand in hand with his conviction that even living for these concepts could never be completely fulfilling. This becomes especially apparent in the author’s masterly analysis of Weber’s two famous speeches “Science as a Vocation” and “Politics as a Vocation.” The author explores the historical context of these influential but widely misunderstood addresses and describes in detail how they enunciated Weber’s distinction between an ethics of conviction and an ethics of responsibility.
Part Two considers Weber’s unfinished project on the sociology of religion. His planned but only partially achieved works on Islam and Western Christianity have challenged the author to attempt to piece them together and to locate them in the history and theory of Weber’s overall work. This reconstruction of Weber’s work on religion emphasizes its interplay between religion, economy, politics, and law. It also is the clearest and most detailed exposition of Weber’s view of the constellation of factors that were responsible for modern Western economic development.

Wolfgang Schluchter is Professor of Sociology at the University of Heidelberg.
