About Max Weber
Max Weber (1864-1920) was a German sociologist, political economist, and philosopher, widely regarded as one of the founding figures of modern sociology. He is best known for his theories on the relationship between religion and economic behavior, particularly in his seminal work "The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism," which explores how Protestant ethics influenced the development of Western capitalism. His contributions to social theory and methodology, including his ideas on bureaucracy and authority, continue to be influential in the social sciences today.
