Das Weber-Paradigma

This volume is based on a colloquium held in April 2003 in Heidelberg. In their articles, the authors' goal is to establish Max Weber's research program as an independent and productive »Weber paradigm« apart from the other dominant approaches in the social sciences. The meeting of scholars whose backgrounds are in completely different disciplines resulted in a collection of essays which, due to their productive variety of subjects and approaches, provide a fundamental guideline to the paradigmatic consolidation of Weber's thinking.
