Against the backdrop of the nineteenth century's mechanical-deterministic worldview, Max Weber wanted to overcome the quarrel about methods in economics and bring into being a theory of science that took the wealth of historical life into account. To this end, he made use of the neo-Kantianism philosophy of south western Germany, supplementing it with the natural sciences' theory of probability and aesthetics' doctrine of ideal type. From 1904, an important medium in this quest was the »Archiv für Sozialwissenschaft und Sozialpolitik«, co-edited by him. Volume I/7 of Weber's Collected Works provides textual criticism of and commentates on his early writings on methodology, including the essay on objectivity and the foreword. The »Stammler« addendum has been re-edited according to the original manuscript, while the subject explanations document the diverse references. Citations, literature sources, and references are itemised in the apparatus.
