Summary Of "The Concept Of Political Power In Max Weber's Work" By Emilia Castorina - UNIVERSITY SUMMARIES - E-book - ePub

We have summarized here the essential of this book by the author. THE CONCEPT OF POLITICAL POWER IN MAX WEBER'S WORKPresentationMax WEBER is a CLASSIC SOCIOLOGY. This is understood in the sense that his work continues to arouse controversy and open suggestions about the present and future of human society. IDEOLOGICALLY, WEBER IS A DISENCHANTED LIBERALHe is to say a thinker who shares the liberal purposes but who warns that part of those purposes has led to the production of facts totally opposed to the ends of individual freedom.
The "faith in a society self-regulated by the market" fell in the face of the attacks of a less happy and more complex reality. Weber chooses to remain a liberal but flatly dismisses the more trivial and ideological forms of this ideology.
