Full textAbstract:
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 Marxism, I show how the prevailing mode of “doing theory” has shifted from Marx's critique of economic determinism to Weber's idea of the inner logic of social value spheres. Today, Weberian Marxism can make an important contribution to theoretical sociology by reconstituting itself as a framework for critically examining prevailing societal definitions of the rationalization imperatives specific to purposive-rational social value spheres (the economy, the administrative state, etc.). In a second step, Weberian Marxists would explore how these value spheres relate to each other and to value spheres that are open to the type of communicative rationalization characteristic of the lifeworld level of social organization.

Full textAbstract:
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 within Western society itself, including its legal systems. Furthermore, Weber's insights can be applied to modern constitutional jurisprudence. Weberian theory reveals that modern constitutional law is riddled with irreconcilable tensions between process and substance—between formal and substantive rationality. In the context of racial discrimination cases involving equal protection and the Fifteenth Amendment, the Supreme Court's acceptance of John Hart Ely's theory of representation-reinforcement demonstrates the Court's resolute pursuit of formal rationality, which insures that the substantive values and needs of minorities will remain unsatisfied.

Full textAbstract:
The existence of students in the community should play a role as a drafter, dynamist, and evaluator of various social changes. Something that has a positive impact on the community. But some of them do the opposite, having a negative impact on the community, such as acting as a gigolo, known as ‘exclusive gigolo’. This research presents the meaningful actions carried out by exclusive gigolo to attract sympathy and various actions in providing excellent service to clients. These actions were examined from the perspective of Max Weber's Theory of Social Action. This research used a qualitative approach with the perspective of Weber's theory. The research subjects were students who worked as gigolos, ranging from freelance to a lover (manstress). The informants were selected using the snowball sampling technique. Meanwhile, the data collection technique used is in-depth interviews. Data analysis and interpretation techniques are carried out with a deeper understanding (verstehen). There are gigolo social actions, within the framework of norm values, which become the blueprint of community behavior. First, the integration between rationality actions and instrumental rationality actions. These actions were found in activities, including: (1) Gigolo built his self-image: from self-expertise to intelligence in choosing marketing models; (2) Ignoring the feeling of shame as self-strengthening in facing various situations; (3) Client service actions: from holding hands to sexual activity. Second, the integration between rationality action and affective action. The highest achievement for gigolo is to become a lover (manstress). The intensity and the close relationship between a gigolo and the client can make both of them fall in love, like real love. In this context, the gigolo puts money as its main goal. On the other hand, gigolo realizes that the woman who is his client has a family, so it is impossible to have the love of the woman completely. This research concluded that: (1) The implementation of Max Weber's Theory of Social Action in gigolo social actions is integrated into one action with another, and; (2) Gigolo does not take traditional actions on the actions that have been taken.

Full textAbstract:
This paper explains that the phenomenon of klitih in Yogyakarta is an action that is contrary to existing norms in society. The perpetrators of klitih who incidentally are students, enter into the trap of delinquency that causes victims. Actions that they do actually damage their own personality and unsettle for motorists at night. 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. This research connects the phenomenon of klitih in Yogyakarta with Max Weber's views through his two theories, namely social action and social change. This research is qualitative in nature with its descriptive analysis and through accurate sources. The results of this research are: First, the action of the perpetrators who do a kind of a game and as a form of recognition by their peers: Second, parents, educational institutions and the community are not optimal in providing supervision to adolescents and students, so that many teenagers in this epoch are involved on various delinquents; Third, the target of the clitih action is motorists who pass certain areas at night. Overall the phenomena that occur are consistent with Max Weber's theory that humans have an action done with a sense of emotion, prioritizing their own interests, so they no longer pay attention to existing norms and think irrationally.

Full textAbstract:
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. We reconstruct the basis of the ideal/material interest distinction in the work of Rudolph von Ihering and provide a sounder basis for its analytic role in Weber’s ‘grand’ project.

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. The first part of this paper investigates social economics in terms of its theoretical and methodological foundations and applicability, while the second part looks at interpretive sociology from the same perspectives, with an emphasis on the differences between the two approaches. We argue that Weber’s dualist methodological attitude became explicit and dominant in his later writings. In addition, as he brought in focus the theory of social action, he not only became an explicit proponent of methodological individualism, but he also revisited and specified the logic and role of “causal explanation” and “interpretation”. Interpretive sociology no longer seeks a causal explanation for individual historical events by applying nomological knowledge, but instead commits itself to finding “causally adequate” explanation for the course and consequences of different types of social actions. Interpretation, in turn, no longer means an analysis of effects concerning the cultural significance of individual historical events in a special sense, but an interpretive understanding of various types of social actions, rational or “irrational”, directly or in a motivation-like manner. The paper concludes with a summary designed to highlight key legacies of Weber’s oeuvre that have remained valid and valuable for any analytical and empirical research in sociology.

This article is intended to answer the factors of weton calculation practice in Ngaringan and sociological analysis of these practices. This article uses field research by observing, interviewing and documenting as well as using Max Weber's theory of social action. This article concludes that the concept of comparability already exists in the rules of Islamic law, positive law and customary law. Therefore, the existence of the traditional Weton calculation practiced by the Ngaringan Grobogan community in Central Java has several factors: first, adat and belief. The community preserves the calculation of weton as a custom originating from ancestors. Second, the form of preventive business. Third, a form of respect for both parents. The traditional Weton calculation practiced by the Ngaringan community is a social action in the traditional action category. The Ngaringan people still maintain the custom of Weton calculation even though the custom is not regulated in a written rule.

Full textAbstract:
One of the central comparative-historical features of Max Weber’s sociology of religion is his theory of disenchantment, whereby magical forms of social action come to be eclipsed by religious forms. This article explicates Weber’s theory of disenchantment, underscoring his original distinction between magic and religion, while emphasizing the unique and often underappreciated position Judaism occupies in Weber’s theory. I accord special significance to the philosopher Maimonides as a medieval expositor of an ideal typically disenchanted form of Judaism. I apply Weber’s theory of disenchantment as a framework for understanding two central features of Maimonides’ intellectual legacy: (1) Maimonides’ codification of Jewish law; and (2) Maimonides’ philosophical and sociohistorical rationalizations of Biblical commandments. In so doing, I situate Maimonides within the broader discourse of sociology of religion and extend a Weberian analysis of Judaism into the medieval period, demonstrating that the role of Judaism in the historical development of “Western” rationality is not alone a product of antiquity as Weber contended.

The article explicates the significance of M. Weber’s works for understanding of calling as an important world view idea of the European culture. The author observes Weber’s analysis of forming of the notion of calling in the times of ancient Egypt state and Judaic captivity as well as in the Old Testament and its interpretations by M. Luther. Particularly significant for the understanding of social processes during the Reformation in Europe and then in America became Weber’s analysis of the transformation of the religious meaning of calling as “task” and “mission” of a man in the world into the motivation for a practical professional activity. The study shows the ways of implementation of Weber’s theory of social action and political leadership within the concept of calling. The internal collision of the experience of calling is explicated by the examples of charismatic leadership, responsibility of a politician and ethos of a scientist. Combination of affective motivation, value and target oriented rationality in the calling forms the problem for a decision, although this complexity is a driving force of the realization of calling by a person. The philosophical and theological substratum of the Weber’s concept of calling is his looking for the integration of temporal and eternal dimensions in human existence. Calling as an idea of postreformational European culture serves for finding and realization of the meaning of personal life as well as for legitimation of social action. Especially this idea grounds the possibility and necessity of conciliation of the ethics of conviction and the ethics of responsibility in individual as well as in social existence and morality.

Full textAbstract:
The article concerns the rationality of acting in Max Weber’s theory of action. The taken attempt of reconstruction of the relation between action and the rationality refers to general types of action and of types of public action. The following regularities of Weber of the presentation are becoming apparent: first, special significance of action of the intentional-rational type, so which is based on the calculation of means because of the purpose. Such action contains structures of the meaning analogous to mathematical-logical what understanding real action enables. Action of the intentional-rational type constitutes the construct on which types of public action are relying. Weber is increasing meaning of intentional-rational elements in these types of action (is rationalizing them) and the number and the significance of trademarks proving about public directing action. This way contemplated clean types of public action constitute the foundation for the rationality of the social orders. Until the end however thinking of the structure covered with drawings here is showing that the system rationality is reducing public informing acting, getting it for rational action because of the purpose.

Associated with the Frankfurt School, Jurgen Habermas's work focuses on the modern foundations of social theory and epistemology, the analysis of advanced capitalistic societies and democracy, the rule of law in a critical social-evolutionary context, and contemporary politics, particularly German politics. Habermas's theoretical system is devoted to revealing the possibility of reason, emancipation, and rational-critical communication latent in modern institutions and in the human capacity to deliberate and pursue rational interests. Habermas is known for his work on the concept of modernity, particularly with respect to the discussions of rationalization originally set forth by Max Weber. He has been influenced by American pragmatism and action theory. This paper sets out to explore the problems and possibilities of communicative action and the reconstruction of rationality which Habermas claims was lost in postmodern genre.

Full textAbstract:
Max Weber and Joseph Schumpeter have contributed to the disciplines of economics and sociology. Their contributions combined history with theory, taking into account the interactions between the fields of economics and sociology. Weber viewed the structure of religious and moral thought as being the basic factor engendering changes in economic and social structures, whereas Schumpeter focused on the creative actions of the entrepreneur. Despite these differences in their approaches, it is possible to claim that economic sociology is the common legacy stemming from the writings of Weber and Schumpeter. This study will propose that the analyses of Weber and Schumpeter in the area of economic sociology are crucial methodological tools and provide a comprehensive analytical framework in understanding economic and social structures. Accordingly, this study examines Weber?s ideas on economic sociology, by means of rational capitalism, bureaucratization, and iron cage concepts, in addition to Schumpeter?s methodology, and his energetic/creative action of the entrepreneur.

Full textAbstract:
The article is devoted to the study of the Max Weber’s position in sociology and philosophy and the position of sociology and philosophy in relation to Max Weber at the turn of the millennium. The author addresses a number of aspects of Weber’s theory (epistemology, axiology, ontology at the microlevel and at the macrolevel), well known and studied in sociology, in order to produce a holistic picture of Max Weber’s conceptual and methodological proposals in terms of their epistemological perspective. In addition, the article examines the currently missed opportunities of Weber’s concept and theorizing, in particular, the paradox of sociological and philosophical discourses, the study of economic action, etc. The author using a wide range of analysts and concepts of Western (E. Troeltsch, J. Habermas, J. Kaube, W. Schluchter, S. Kalberg, T. Schwinn, H. Joas, J. Vahland, K. Palonen) and post-Soviet (Yu Davydov, L. Titarenko, S. Zolyan, T. Dmitriev) sociologists and philosophers, as well as analyzing a number of works of the German philosopher and sociologist himself, demonstrates the heuristic potential of Weber’s developments in various dimensions. The topics of the origins and roots of the Weberian concept, its methodology of science, the social status of science from Weber’s point of view, the place of enchantment in social and epistemological processes, the relationship between motive and meaning, the problem of administrative power and utility, human rights in Weber’s optics and macrohistorical logic in his research are touched upon. The author also draws attention to the connection between Weber’s socio-political and worldview position with his epistemological developments, his scientific and academic activities. Analogies are drawn between the situations of the early XX and early XXI centuries with the demonstration of the possibilities of Weber’s experience in the modern socio-cultural and historical situation.

Full textAbstract:
Aim: To investigate how differences in types of professions and rationalities affect the management of inter-sectoral trajectories in psychiatric health care in the Capital Region of Denmark.
Background: Some psychiatry users experience a lack of coherence between the mental health care treatment provided at hospitals and run by the regions, and that provided at residential psychiatric units run by municipalities. The literature points to various challenges in this field of research, related to transitions that need rethinking and further examination.
Method: The approach is an eclectic use of theory and methods in a theory-governed analysis of empirical data built up from focus group interviews with professionals in mental health care centres and social psychiatric residencies. We classify the positions from the data using a theoretical framework based on Max Weber's theory of ideal types and from Pierre Bourdieu's concept of habitus. Our analysis outlines a theory about the practice of transitions in inter-sectoral trajectories in psychiatric health care.
Results: From the empirical material, we were able to construct different professional ideal types related to mental health care psychiatry and social psychiatry. The construction points to differences in the habitual basis of action that maintains institutional distinctions.
Discussion: Differences in ideal types are connected to the prevailing positions of the two sectors, in which management in health care centres follows a dominant medical rationality, and management in residencies draws on a social and social educational legitimacy.
Conclusion: We find differences between the rationalities and habitus of staff at regional hospitals and municipal residencies that enable us to explain how management contributes to trajectories in psychiatric health care. Choices concerning trajectory transitions relate to a combination of habitual professional inclinations and the management of trajectories streamlined through illness classification based on a neoliberal governance model. Future management must be aware of the different rationalities linked to professional and institutional logics when planning; and this requires reflexivity and awareness of the management of intersectoral collaboration.

Private educational institutions have various methods of recruiting students according to school needs. In general, these schools prefer to implement PPDB (New Student Admissions) with the "pick up ball" method, rather than taking PPDB Online. PPDB "pick the ball" is a method of recruiting students that is followed by all school units including, educators and students. They go directly to the field to find and pick up students. So, not only students who come to the school to register, but the school will pick up prospective students. This research is a qualitative study using the Alfred Schutz phenomenology approach. Max Weber's theory of social action as the analysis knife of this research. The focus of this research study is the SMK Siang 1 Bojonegoro school unit. The selection of informants was done purposively. Data obtained through observation, indepth interview, and documentation. The results of the study, SMK Siang 1 Bojonegoro has several reasons for "picking up the ball", including: maintaining school prestige, eliminating negative stereotypes, competition between schools, increasing economic capital, bureaucratic efficiency, and the existence of a communal culture in the Bojonegoro community. There are two strategies used to make "pick the ball" successful. Hegemony strategy, actors act on the basis of franchise principles, seen from the side of efficiency and effectiveness alone. Meanwhile, the actor's Social Capital strategy acts based on moral and religious values.

Regional student organizations are organizations formed through a group of students who come from one area and have the same goal. Forda IPTTM (Tongkonan Toraja Malang Youth Association) is a form of regional student organization that has the same goal among its members, namely as a communication for Toraja students who have migrated in Malang. This research focuses on how the role of Forda IPTTM in introducing Toraja culture in Malang. This study uses a qualitative approach and is described descriptively by providing a detailed description of the problem formulation in the study. In analyzing research problems, researchers used Max Weber's theory of social action and the concept of status and role. The results showed that students who have status as members and administrators have rights and obligations that must be carried out for the success of the goals of the establishment of Forda IPTTM. The role of Forda IPTTM in introducing Toraja culture is manifested through the activities and work programs they have carried out, namely participating in cultural exhibitions by presenting Toraja dances and participating in the Universitas Brawijaya Cultural Village Festival, as well as promoting Toraja culture through social media.
Organisasi mahasiswa daerah ialah sebuah organisasi yang terbentuk melalui beberapa kumpulan mahasiswa yang berasal dari satu daerah dan memiliki tujuan yang sama. Forda IPTTM (Ikatan Pemuda Tongkonan Toraja Malang) merupakan salah satu bentuk organisasi mahasiswa daerah yang memiliki tujuan yang sama antar anggotanya yakni sebagai komunikasi mahasiswa Toraja yang merantau di Malang. Penelitian ini berfokus pada bagaimana peran Forda IPTTM dalam memperkenalkan kebudayaan Toraja di Malang. Peneliti menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dan penelitian dijelaskan secara deskriptif dengan cara memberi gambaran terperinci mengenai rumusan masalah dalam penelitian. Dalam menganalisis permasalahan penelitian, teori yang digunakan peneliti adalah teori tindakan sosial Max Weber serta konsep status dan peran. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa mahasiswa yang memiliki status sebagai anggota maupun pengurus memiliki hak dan kewajiban yang harus dijalankan demi keberhasilan tujuan berdirinya Forda IPTTM. Peran Forda IPTTM dalam memperkenalkan kebudayaan Toraja diwujudkan melalui program kerja dan kegiatan yang telah mereka lakukan yakni mengikuti pameran budaya dengan menampilkan tarian Toraja dan mengikuti Festival Kampung Budaya Universitas Brawijaya, serta mempromosikan kebudayaan Toraja melalui media sosial.

Abstract: This article aims at analyzing Fethullah Gülen and the Gülen Movement which have succeeded in performing social change based on the teaching of Sufism. He did Sufism creativity in order that Sufism teaching was able to respond the changes that occur in the modernlife. He believed that, only by reinterpretation and contextualization of Sufism, the spiritual dimension of Islam would be able to perform the transformation or social change among the Muslims. Therefore, by using Max Weber’s theory of social action, this paper will analyze three key teachings of Sufism of Gülen: ascetic (zuhd), inbisat (expansion), and hizmet. Based on the Weber's theory, Gülen occupied a very central and authoritative position: agent/actor, action and meaning. As a source of meaning and interpreter of meaning, the key concepts of Sufism were transformed by Gülen to the internal and external communities so that they had made a move to do social movements and humanity. For the followers of Gülen, the movement was called the Gülen Movement or the Hizmet Movement which was engaged in the fields of education, health care, humanitarian assistance, and the mass media. All forms of movement were entirely based on the spiritual values of Islam that had been formulated by Gülen. الملخص: يهدف هذا البحث إلى تحليل شخصية فتح الله غولن وحركته الذي تمكن من القيام بالتغيير الاجتماعي على أساس التعاليم الصوفية. إن فتح الله غولن قام بإحياء التصوف في صورته الجدّية والحيوية في حياة الإنسان المعاصر. ويعتقد أن إعادة التفسير لتعاليم التصوف مع مراعاة الواقع قادرة على التغيير الاجتماعي بين المسلمين. من أجل ذلك، أن استخدام نظرية ويبر، يمكن تحليل تعاليم التصوف الثلاثة التي اعتمد عليها فتح الله غولين، وهي : الزهد، إينبيسات (التوسع)، والخدمة. بهذه النظرية، يحتل غولن منصبا استراتيجيا وموثوقا: كالممثل والعمل، والمعنى.وأنه مصدر للمعنى والمفسر له، وبهذا المفهوم، نقله غولن إلى المجتمع الداخلي والخارجي للقيام بالحركات الاجتماعية والإنسانية . ويطلق أتباع غولن هذه الحركة باسم حركة غولن أو حركة الخدمة التي تشارك في التعليم والرعاية الصحية والمساعدة الصحية ووسائل الإعلام. يُنفّذ جميع هذه الأنشطة على أساس القيم الروحية التي صاغها غولن إلى أتباعه . Abstrak: Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis Fethullah Gülen dan Gerakan Gülen yang berhasil melakukan perubahan sosial berdasarkan ajaran tasawuf. Ia melakukan sufism creativity (kreativitas sufisme) yang bertujuan agar ajaran tasawuf mampu merespon perubahan-perubahan yang terjadi dalam kehidupan manusia modern. Ia meyakini bahwa hanya dengan reinterpretasi dan kontekstualisasi ajaran tasawuf, maka dimensi spiritualitas Islam ini akan mampu melakukan transformasi atau perubahan sosial di kalangan umat Islam. Karena itu, dengan menggunakan teori tindakan sosial Weber, tulisan ini akan menganalisis tiga ajaran kunci tasawuf Gülen: zuhud, inbisat (ekspansi), dan hizmet. Dengan kerangka teori Weber, maka Gülen menempati posisi yang sangat sentral dan otoritatif: agen/aktor, aksi, dan makna. Sebagai sumber makna dan penafsir makna, maka konsep kunci tasawuf tersebut ditransformasikan oleh Gülen ke komunitas internal dan eksternal sehingga mereka tergerak untuk melakukan gerakan-gerakan sosial dan kemanusiaan. Bagi para pengikut Gülen, gerakan itu menamakan dirinya Gerakan Gülen atau Gerakan Hizmet yang bergerak dalam bidang pendidikan, layanan kesehatan, bantuan-bantuan kemanusiaan, dan media massa. Semua bentuk gerakan ini sepenuhnya didasari oleh nilai-nilai spiritualitas Islam yang telah diformulasikan oleh Gülen.

ResumenEste artículo desarrolla, en tres pasos, una perspectiva original de la teoría de la dominación de Max Weber. El primer paso establece un vínculo necesario entre las formas típicas de dominación política y los intereses sociales, de modo que toda acción política debe legitimarse ante el interés general. El segundo paso explica las crisis de legitimación como una respuesta a cambios de identidad en la base social de la dominación política, de tal forma que se introduce un concepto dinámico de legitimidad. El tercer paso establece que los valores que habitan en las formas legitimas de dominación política son usados como orientaciones simbólicas por parte de intereses sociales y acciones políticas particulares, de manera que toda forma de legitimación de la autoridad encierra, en sus propias premisas, los argumentos que justifican luchas políticas hacia la modificación de los esquemas de dominación.Palabras clave: legitimidad, dominación, acción política, democratización.Abstract This article develops, in three steps, an orignal perspective of Weber’s legitimacy theory. The first one, establishes a necessary link that exists between the typical forms of legitimate domination and the social interests, in such a way that every political action that purse the realization of its interests has to legitimate itself before the general will. The second explains the legitimation crises as a response to indentity changes at the social base of the political domination and, in so doing, it introduces a dinamic concept of legitimacy. The third step states that the values that dwell in legitimate forms of political domination are used as symbolic orientations by particular social intersts and political actions, in a way that each form of authority legitimation encapsulate, in its own premises, the arguments that justify political struggles aiming toward the modification of the domination schemes.Key words: legitimacy, domination, political action, democratization.

This paper discusses about women as wives of convicted criminals in Batusangkar, West Sumatra. This study concentrates on the reasons of their attitudes to stay at becoming wives of these convicted criminals. This study is an empirical research by utilizing the theory of social action of Max Weber. This article argues that the wives of convicted criminals have chosen to keep their household as a fruit of both traditional and rational action choices. The wife loyalty and the stigmatization of widow status are among traditional values which give strong influence to them. At the same time, some consider their age, their nuclear family and financial needs as rational reasons behind their choice.Tulisan ini membahas tentang perempuan yang menjadi isteri narapidana di Batusangkar, Sumatera Barat. Fokus kajian dalam tulisan ini adalah alasan mengapa mereka tetap memilih bertahan menjadi isteri narapidana. Dengan menggunakan teori tindakan sosial Max Weber, artikel ini menyatakan bahwa para perempuan tersebut tetap memilih bertahan untuk menjadi para isteri narapidana dikarenakan alasan tradisi dan alasan rasional. Kesetiaan perempuan dan stigma negatif terhadap status janda menjadi alasan tradisional yang melatari pilihan mereka. Sedangkan alasan rasional mereka dapat dilihat dari pernyataan di antara mereka yang mempertimbangkan usia mereka yang sudah lanjut. Sebagian lagi mempertimbangkan nasib anak-anak mereka. Terdapat pula sebagian isteri yang berargumen karena kebutuhan ekonomi mereka.

Full textAbstract:
Bantengan art is an art featuring dance, music, or spells with magical and philosophical nuances. This art is a development of the art of pencak silat which finally stood alone as a typical culture of East Java. In 2019, Bantengan art was designated as an Intangible Cultural Heritage by the Ministry of Education and Culture with the category of performing arts represented by Pasuruan Regency and Batu City. The development of bantengan art cannot be separated from the role of the community, especially associations and cultural actors. As discussed in this research, the researcher tries to describe how the efforts to preserve banteng art in the Prigen area were analyzed using descriptive qualitative methods. The research subjects were members of the Bantengan Budi Mulyo group and the community who were selected using purposive sampling technique. The results showed that the activities carried out by Budi Mulyo Bantengan Group were classified as directed, organized, and of social value. This is in accordance with the theory of social action put forward by Max Weber where an action has a meaning or subjective meaning that is directed to the actions of others. The research also found that Budi Mulyo's bantengan group acts as a unifying tool for people who love and want to preserve Bantengan art in the Prigen area.
Kesenian Bantengan merupakan seni yang menampilkan tarian, musik, atau mantra bernuansa magis dan filosofis. Kesenian ini merupakan pengembangan dari kesenian pencak silat yang akhirnya berdiri sendiri sebagai sebuah kebudayaan khas Jawa Timur. Pada tahun 2019, kesenian Bantengan ditetapkan sebagai Warisan Budaya Tak Benda oleh Kementerian Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan dengan kategori seni pertunjukkan diwakili oleh Kabupaten Pasuruan dan Kota Batu. Berkembangnya kesenian bantengan tidak lepas dari peran masyarakat, terutama paguyuban dan pelaku budaya. Seperti yang dibahas dalam penelitian ini, dimana peneliti berusaha mendeskripsikan bagaimana upaya pelestarian kesenian bantengan di wilayah Prigen yang dianalisis menggunakan metode kualitatif deskriptif. Subjek penelitian adalah anggota kelompok Bantengan Budi Mulyo dan masyarakat yang dipilih menggunakan teknik purposive sampling. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kegiatan yang dilakukan oleh Kelompok Bantengan Budi Mulyo tergolong terarah, terorganisir, serta bernilai sosial. Hal ini sesuai dengan teori tindakan sosial yang dikemukakan oleh Max Weber dimana suatu tindakan yang memiliki makna atau arti subjektif yang diarahkan kepada tindakan orang lain. Dari penelitian ditemukan pula bahwa kelompok Bantengan Budi Mulyo berperan sebagai alat pemersatu masyarakat yang mencintai dan ingin melestarikan seni Bantengan di kawasan Prigen.

Full textAbstract:
Assuming the importance of Alfred Schutz’s “protosociology” in social theory as a given, the paper tries to explore its philosophical core, treating Schutz’s sociophenomenology as an answer to the most fundamental questions of phenomenology, such as evidence and phenomenological reduction. It analyses Schutz’s point of departure – the problematization of Max Weber’s concept of the meaning of social action and its deepening by means of Henri Bergson’s and Edmund Husserl’s notion of time – and tries to unravel the double structure of consciousness (first in Brentano and Husserl, then in Schutz), revealing increasingly its complex temporal character. Brentano’s and Husserl’s double intentionality, seeming to offer a kind of “decent realism” in modern philosophical context, in Schutz turns out to be marked by the profound pastness of reflexive consciousness, reaching the primary stream experience only by means of primary and secondary acts of remembrance, re-effectuated intersubjectively in acts of phantasying about future (modo futuri exacti), thus constituting the very core of meaning, with its reference to external objects. It appears that only analysing this mode of phantasying in reference to its motives that we can solve the conundrum of realism in its modern shape.

Full textAbstract:
Despite the significant contributions of women in economic development nationally, the unrecognized attitude of the government, lack of existing legal framework and policies, vagaries of informal economy and changes in the social–economic landscape have accounted largely for the closure of female enterprises in the informal economy. Using Yoruba female textile traders as a case study because these women have broken the "glass ceiling" and made a success of their textile trading, this paper examined the dynamics of entry and motivations of Yoruba women in textile trading. The paper synthesized Social Capital Theory by Coleman and Social Action Theory by Max Weber to explain the issue. It utilized a qualitative method of data collection. Eight focus group discussions and forty in-depth interviews were used to collect information from the women participants who were purposively chosen. The data reveal that parents, family/kinship members and friends had great influence in the strategic entry of women into textile trading in the Balogun market and the subsequent development of women's entrepreneurial activities. Yoruba female textile traders were motivated into textile trading because of economic and cultural values attached to the trade. This data is essential toward policy formulation for women's entrepreneurial development in the informal economy. This paper argues that any policies implemented for women entrepreneurs in the informal economy must be conceived, formulated and implemented with an in-depth understanding of the nuanced elements in the cultural domain within the social system, which the existing literature has yet to capture.

Gus Dur, in this case, stated that the Pesantren salaf community is a community that has its own subcultural in the middle of society with the complexity of the problems in it. But on the other hand, there is a very rapid development of science and technology, so it demands pesantren salaf to make changes to adjust to the times, both in terms of the education system, the boarding school environment, institutions, leadership patterns, and others. Therefore, the study contained in the title "Pesantren Salaf: Social Change and Sublimation of Identity (Pesantren Model in West Java)", is very important to be carried out.The purpose of this study is none other than to find the concept of changes that occur in Pesantren salaf in West Java. For more details, they are: 1) uncovering the factors that drive changes in pesantren in West Java; 2) reveal pesantren's efforts in facing the challenges of the times, and 3) find forms of changes that occur in the Pesantren salaf in West Java.This research departs from a thought that social change will occur due to four things. First, Evolution. This theory states that humans as part of a cultured society will naturally develop gradually from simple forms to complex and perfect stages. Second, Conflict. This theory strongly believes that change will only occur if there is conflict. Third. Functional Theory. Social change occurs because of the disharmony between cultural elements. Fourth, Cycle Theory. Social change by itself will occur and cannot be controlled.The method used in this research is descriptive. In the process, the data is collected and compiled. After the data is collected and arranged in such a way, the authors analyze it and provide interpretation, with a qualitative approach. So that it is expected to be able to uncover the realities of the Pesantren salaf which are changing in the community.The results of the study stated that the Pesantren salaf can adapt well to social change by bringing up certain identities. This shift in identity needs to be examined and studied through the theory of action put forward by Max Weber. First, zweckrational. This theory is known as rational-purpose. In doing something always with a good and accurate calculation. Second, wertrational or rational-values. The involvement of the subject is directly involved in matters of absolute importance. The four traditionalists. This theory of action rests on established and established customs or traditions. Traditionalist theories respect existing authority.

AbstractTheologies dedicated to radical social change require an understanding of how social change is possible. Gregory Baum has developed such a theory based on Max Weber's notion of charismatic leadership. This article analyzes Baum's understanding of the nature and dynamics of social change, the role of symbols therein, and shows how Baum corrects certain weaknesses in Weber's thought. Baum's theory could be strengthened by drawing upon Christian symbols of eschatological hope and the doctrine of the Trinity. This would help the church relate its faith to social movements and countervailing trends in terms of its own symbol system.

Full textAbstract:
This paper is intended to discuss Gerald Turkel’s thoughts on liberal society, rationality, and rule of law, as well as the author’s analysis of the paradigms that underlie these thoughts. This article focuses on the scope of social change by analyzing how rule of law has made the change from classical liberalism and competitive capitalism to corporate liberalism and corporate capitalism in the United States. Through the study of literature, the author can conclude that there is a common thread between the relationship between classical liberalism, competitive capitalism and the rule of law ideology, in this case the rule of law is explained based on the typology of legal decision making put forward by Max Weber and his views on rationality and social action. Next, a philosophical study by the author paradigmatically against the thought of Turkel concluded that Turkel’s writings were still in the understanding of the positivism paradigm. However, this paradigmatic study is not the only one because through this writing, the reader is invited to slowly (but surely) enter the “world” paradigm of critical theory et. al. Therefore, among the paradigmatic ranges, Turkel actually rests on the post-positivism paradigm.
Abstrak
Artikel ini membahas pemikiran Gerald Turkel mengenai masyarakat liberal, rasionalitas, dan rule of law, serta paradigma yang memayungi pemikiran tersebut. Artikel ini difokuskan pada lingkup perubahan sosial dengan menganalisis bagaimana rule of law telah membuat perubahan dari liberalisme klasik dan kapitalisme kompetitif menuju liberalisme korporasi dan kapitalisme korporasi di Amerika Serikat. Melalui studi literatur, artikel ini menyimpulkan bahwa terdapat benang merah hubungan antara liberalisme klasik, kapitalisme kompetitif dan ideologi rule of law, dalam hal ini rule of law yang dijelaskan berdasarkan tipologi pengambilan keputusan hukum yang dikemukakan oleh Max Weber dan pandangannya tentang rasionalitas dan tindakan sosial. Telaah filsafati yang dilakukan secara paradigmatik terhadap pemikiran Turkel menyimpulkan bahwa tulisan Turkel masih berada dalam pemahaman paradigma positivisme. Namun demikian, telaah paradigmatik ini bukanlah satu-satunya, karena melalui tulisan tersebut pembaca diajak untuk secara perlahan-lahan (namun pasti) memasuki “dunia” paradigma critical theory. Oleh karena di antara rentang paradigmatik itu, Turkel sejatinya berpijak pada paradigma post-positivisme.

Abstract Weber's analysis of capitalism evolved in arguing against Marx's theory. It claims no less than giving a better account of modern capitalism, historically, as weil as categorially, than Marx himself. As a sociological theory of economy, based on an analytical theory ofhuman action, it also offers an approach to a critical ethics of the capitalist economy, which, after the self-induced end of socialism, has become an issue of greater urgency than ever before

Abstract This article argues for the need to reconsider and reframe the debate on the interpretation and validity of Max Weber's theory of social classes in Brazil. Countering its reduction to the condition of a historical precursor, the study highlights the differences between the two versions of his theory of stratification in Economy and Society and describes its problematic reception in the Brazilian academic context. Starting from a critique of the bias contained in these interpretations, the article presents its current revival in the German sociological debate with na emphasis on the work of M. Rainer Lepsius aiming to stimulate a diversification and deepening of the theoretical reflection on social classes.

Full textAbstract:
The concept of patrimonial domination was at first underutilized in western social science and then often used without proper clarification of its methodological basis. When the Soviet system was characterized as patrimonial, conceptual analysis was also generally lacking. In the article an attempt is made to fill in the gap between Weberian sociological theory and historical studies of Soviet society. It is argued that, although the concept of patrimonialism is applicable to the Stalinist system, this concept is not sufficient for the description of the Soviet state throughout its history. It is assumed in the article that Weber's concept of Beamtenmherrschaft might be more appropriate for the analysis of the post-Stalinist political regime in the USSR.
