Max Weber explored the political, epistemological and ethical
problems of modernity, and understood how closely connected they
were. His efforts are imaginative, sophisticated, even inspiring,
but also flawed. Weber's epistemological successes and failures
highlight unresolvable tensions that are just as pronounced today
and from which we have much to learn. This edited collection of
essays offers novel readings of Weber's politics, approach to
knowledge, rationality, counterfactuals, ideal types, power,
bureaucracy, the state, history, and the non-Western world. The
conclusions look at how some of his prominent successors have
addressed or finessed the tensions of the epistemological between
subjective values and subjective knowledge; the sociological
between social rationalization and irrational myths; the personal
among conflicting values; the political between the kinds of
leaders democracies select and the national tasks that should be
performed; and the tragic between human conscience and worldly
affairs.
