In this volume, a sequel to his study "Max Weber and German Politics", the author provides statements on current developments in the analysis of Weber's work. The book concentrates upon Weber's engagement with political issues and their influence over his more theoretical concepts. The author offers a critical analysis of Weber's notion of democracy, distinguishing its liberal and elitist features. A thorough assessment of Weber's views of socialism is provided against the backcloth of German Social Democracy. These isues are in turn related to the familiar theme of bureaucracy, which the author analyzes in terms of a novel discussion of the concept of rationalization. The author emphasizes the need to see Weber's sociology as part of an historical world-view, oriented to values of individuality and personal creativity. He deals with Weber's methodological concepts, concentrating on issues to do with ideal types and historical generalization. A concluding chapter is devoted to the reception of Weber's ideas in modern social thinking. The work is aimed at third year undergraduates and researchers in sociology, politics, history, philosophy and social philosophy.
