Abstract:
For Weberian Marxists, the social theories of Max Weber and Karl Marx are complementary contributions to the analysis of modern capitalist society. Combining Weber's theory of rationalization with Marx's critique of commodity fetishism to develop his own critique of reification, Georg Lukács contended that the combination of Marx's and Weber's social theories is essential to envisioning socially transformative modes of praxis in advanced capitalist society. By comparing Lukács ‘s theory of reification with Habermas's theory of communicative action as two theories in the tradition of Weberian M

Abstract:
Among legal scholars, Anthony T. Kronman and David M. Trubek have provided the leading interpretations of Weber's theory of law. Kronman and Trubek agree on two important points: Weber's theory is fundamentally contradictory, and Weber's theory relates primarily to private law subjects such as contracts. This article contests both of these points. Building on a foundation of Weber's neo-Kantian metaphysics and his sociological categories of economic action, this article shows that Weber's theory of law is not fundamentally inconsistent; rather it explores the inconsistencies that are inherent

The perpetrators of klitih who incidentally are students, enter into the trap of delinquency that causes victims.

Besides that, it causes deep sadness that educational institutions have not succeeded in establishing good character for students and adolescents in this country, especially for perpetrators.

While Weber’s distinction between ‘ideal’ and ‘material’ interests is one of the most enduring aspects of his theoretical legacy, it has been subjected to little critical commentary. In this article, we revisit the theoretical legacy of interest-based explanation in social theory, with an eye to clarifying Weber’s place in this tradition. We then reconsider extant critical commentary on the ideal/material interest distinction, noting the primarily Parsonian rendering of Weber and the unproductive allegiance to ‘generic need’ readings of Weber’s action theory.

Abstract One of the most outstanding intellectual achievements in the history of classical thought in social sciences which have remained influential up until today are undoubtedly associated with the name of Max Weber. Through a detailed text analysis and a conceptual mapping of the logic of the argumentation, this paper sets out to offer a profound insight into the classical German sociologist’s approach to science, both “early” (about 1903/4) and “late” (post-1913), in terms of some fundamental matters of epistemology and methodology.

Abstract:
This chapter examines how Max Weber's work has been recast as canonical for the social sciences and central to its current agendas. It first considers the substantial body of translations that became the basis for the postwar permeation of Weber's work into the social sciences, and especially into the subfield specializations of sociology, including Talcott Parsons' The Protestant Ethic and the “Spirit” of Capitalism, before discussing the role played by the interwar émigrés in the struggle over the mastery of Weber. It then explains how Weber achieved an intellectual synthesis through a combination of structural and institutional analysis, notions of rationality, propositions about social action, awareness of cultural particularities, and a deep appreciation for historical inquiry and evidence. It also analyzes the expansion of the horizon for Weber's ideas beyond the boundaries of sociology to the Western philosophical and political tradition.

Abstract:
A sociological account of law argues that in order to understand and explain the concept of law we need to adopt a sociological analysis based on the actual social circumstances in which the law and legal ideas are shaped and applied. This approach typically makes three related claims: that we cannot correctly comprehend the meaning of law except as a ‘social phenomenon’, that the study of legal concepts offers an incomplete explanation of ‘law in action’, and that law is only one form of social control. This chapter examines how these claims are developed in the theories of Roscoe Pound, Eugen Ehrlich, Émile Durkheim, Max Weber, Karl Marx, Michel Foucault, and Jürgen Habermas.

Abstract:
Research on the complexities of Islamic societies under the rubric of “Developing or transitional Countries” do not address their socio-economic statuses, the structure of Muslims' social actions, their struggles in the process of transition, and their domestic social mobilities in the modern stratified globalized world. For the purpose of disclosure of complexity, the sociological notion of universality of stratification and functionalism, from the traditional view and modern structural-functionalism, are addressed in detail to explore the conditions, means, and ends from both a theoretical view and empirical findings. Attention to history, culture, politics, and religion, as well as status groups such as the ‘ulama and Shi'ite-Sunni Islam and scientific aspirations induces novel uses of Talcott Parsons' action theory and Max Weber's interactionism. In terms of methodology, the focal point of this chapter is to try to overcome idealistic empiricism and positivism as fractional legacies of non-interpretive tenets of economics and sociology.

Abstract:
In this chapter, Robert Pinker introduces the three institutional features which have come to make up citizenship — civil rights, political rights and social rights — by analysing T.H. Marshall's concept of citizenship from a generational perspective. He first considers Marshall's models of citizenship and ‘democratic welfare capitalism’, Michael Oakeshott's views on social policy and his notion of the state, and Max Weber's distinction between what he calls ‘formal’ and ‘substantive’ rationality. Pinker then explains how Marshall's concept of citizenship could be useful in understanding the everyday and subjective experience of citizenship at the level of everyday ‘life across the life cycle’. He also discusses the ways in which ordinary people secure their well-being and their welfare in everyday life, typically through means such as social services, the market, informal care and voluntary action. Finally, he describes the relationship between rationality and the sentiments of charitable discretion.
