This volume examines Max Weber's pre-World War I thinking about
bureaucracy. It suggests that Weber's vision shares common
components with the highly efficient Prussian General Staff
military bureaucracy developed by Clausewitz and Helmuth von
Moltke. Weber did not believe that Germany's other major
institutions, the Civil Service, industry, or the army could
deliver world class performances since he believed that they
pursued narrow, selfish interests. However, following Weber's death
in 1920, the model published by his wife Marianne contained none of
the military material about which Weber had written approvingly in
the early chapters of Economy and Society. Glynn Cochrane concludes
that Weber's model was unlikely to include military material after
the Versailles peace negotiations (in which Weber participated)
outlawed the Prussian General Staff in 1919.
