Opis

This is a translation of Max Weber's classic work in sociology in which Stephen Kalberg offers a nuanced rendering that aims to capture Weber's style and the subtlety of his descriptions and causal arguments. Weber's original italicization, highlighting major themes, has been restored, and Kalberg has standardized Weber's terminology to better facilitate understanding of the various twists and turns in his complex lines of reasoning.
