| Description: | Relates the categories of Weber's social thinking to the intellectual context of legal thinking and theory in which he was educated. As such, this is the only account of the key sources of Weber's sociology of law. This book is the first account of the way in which Weber appropriated and modified sources in the legal tradition, in which he was trained, to construct his sociology. It leads directly to a new understanding of Weber''s intent and his relations to the tradition of social and political theory. the book takes the reader into the heart of Weber''s conceptualizations of action and social science, without ever giving the impression that these are rarefied and marginal issues. This is an important book for understanding the significance of one of the key sociologist''s of the twentieth century. |
