Recenzii
'Stephen Kalberg has long been a penetrating and original interpreter of Weber's work. His publications stand out in the large Weber literature by focusing on Weber's modes of analysis that remain fruitful today, a century later. Putting that claim of continuing relevance to multiple tests, this is a significant publication.' Dietrich Rueschemeyer, Brown University, USA, author of Usable Theory: Analytic Tools for Social and Political Research 'Both in the complexity of his work and its relevance to the crisis of his time Weber finds in Kalberg a commentator who is equal to the task of demonstrating how only an equivalent project could match up to the demands that the current global crisis makes on social science.' Martin Albrow, University of Wales, UK 'Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates and above.' Choice
