Classical Attempt at Theoretical Synthesis (Theoretical Logic in Sociology)

Max Weber

von Jeffrey Alexander

264 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The limits of one-dimensional theory are strikingly revealed in the schools that the founders of the major sociological traditions established. In this volume Max Weber is presented as the theorist who laid out new starting points and the author considers his work as a response, in part, to the idealist tradition which (in Volume 2), he maintains that Durkheim represents. As Weber was less able to avoid ambiguity, the author examines the weaknesses and efforts at 'paradigm revision'.
