马克斯·韦伯(Max Weber, 1864年4月21日—1920年6月14日)是德国的政治经济学家和社会学家,他被公认是现代社会学和公共行政学最重要的创始人之一。韦伯最初在柏林大学开始教职生涯,并陆续于维也纳大学、慕尼黑大学等大学任教。他对于当时德国的政界影响极大,曾前往凡尔赛会议代表德国进行谈判,并且参与了魏玛共和国宪法的起草设计。
韦伯的主要著作围绕于社会学的宗教和政治研究领域上,但他也对经济学领域作出极大的贡献。他的知名著作《新教伦理与资本主义精神》是他对宗教社会学最初的研究,韦伯在这本书中主张,宗教的影响是造成东西方文化发展差距的主要原因,并且强调新教伦理在资本主义、官僚制度、和法律权威的发展上所扮演的重要角色。韦伯并将国家定义为一个“拥有合法使用暴力的垄断地位”的实体,这个定义对于西方现代政治学的发展影响极大。他在各种学术上的重要贡献通常被通称为“韦伯命题”。
For more than 100 years, Max Weber's The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism has set the parameters for the debate over the origins of modern capitalism. Now more timely and thought provoking than ever, this esteemed classic of twentieth-century social science examines the deep cultural "frame of mind" that existed at the birth of modern capitalism and to this day influences attitudes toward work in northern America and Western Europe. In this volume, Stephen Kalberg revises his internationally acclaimed translation--using shorter sentences and more lucid language--to make the work even more accessible to students and other readers. Capturing the essence of Weber's style as well as the subtlety of his descriptions and causal arguments, this is the only translation of the revised 1920 edition of The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism published since 1930. To draw readers into the material, this engaging volume includes extensive introductions by the editor, a chronology of Weber's life, a glossary, and numerous clarifying endnotes. Detailed commentaries discuss the controversies Weber addressed, explain his complex causal argument by reference to the general contours of his sociology, summarize the history of "the Protestant Ethic debate," and examine the significance of "the Protestant Sects" essays. Ideal for courses in sociology, anthropology, political science, history, international relations, economics, and cultural studies, The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism is an essential resource for anyone seeking to understand the origins and endurance of the modern West.
理性的吊诡 ——读《新教伦理与资本主义精神》 记得潘小松在《随便翻翻的从容》中曾说:“假如不是职业的逼迫,我以为读书的最佳状态是兴之所至、随心所欲随便翻翻:这是鲁迅先生半个多世纪前就倡导过的。”[i]读书不多,却也喜欢随性子读书,不愿受着太多目的的束缚。但碰到经...
评分马克思.韦伯是一个“不写诗,不幻想”(按:韦伯语,见玛丽安妮.韦伯的《马克思.韦伯传》)的人,但不能因此认定他古板无趣,毫无诗性的特质,相反,人们只需稍加留意,便可以在其严谨的学术著作里找到诗歌阴郁的基调。本质上讲,这是一个用晦涩的学术语言和理性主义来架构诗章...
评分前两天刘瑜写了篇文章叫作资本主义新人,里面引用了韦伯对于新教伦理的论述,认为这本书“在本质上就是给被马克思臭了大街的‘资本主义’四个字正名”。我在豆瓣状态里指出她这个观点错了。有很多人发信来质问我哪里有错,我说你去看我在豆瓣上写的书评,他们看了以后仍然说觉...
评分我并不认为韦伯对于文化的狭隘认知以及对德国经济发展的糟糕预判算得上是这本书的瑕疵,但真的麻烦你能不能把书稍微写写明白……
