Brief Weberiana

by on September 29th, 2005

I recently ran across the article “Remnants of Romanticism: Max Weber in Oklahoma and Indian Territory”:http://jcs.sagepub.com/cgi/content/abstract/5/1/53 which is a nice little piece of scholarship on two things that I usually don’t think of together — Max Weber and Native North America. Let he who has ears hear.

    Thanks, Rex, for the pointer. I discovered, alas, that although I was perfectly willing to pay the $15.00 for the download, SAGE in its ignorance was demanding a US zip code. Grrrrr…..

  5. nkey, lets try Mr. Scaff`s receipe for hot lambflaps.
    First of all, Max Weber was a convinced nationalist and an old school advocate of Nationalökonomie, that he had studied himself and later taught at university–our original question whether Weber was an advocate of value-free science or not in mind.
    From this contextual perspective a variety of disconstructional attempts become obsolete.
