Andreas Anter reconstructs Max Weber's fragmentary theory of the
modern state showing its relationship to contemporary theories and
its significance for today's political science. The book consists
of six chapters: The first analyses Weber's concept of the state,
the second relates the theory of the state to the sociology of rule
and domination, the third and fourth discuss Weber's hermeneutics
and his doctrine of value-judgements, the fifth deals with the
history of the modern state, and the final chapter focuses on
Weber's metaphor of the state as 'machine'. Anter reveals the
ambivalence of Weber's political thought: the oscillation between
an etatiste position, mainly oriented to the reason of state, and
an individualistic one, focussed on the freedom of individuals. He
shows how much worse off we would be without Weber's theory, not at
least by indicating its impact upon later authors.
