The Social Thought of Max Weber
And why then did capitalist interests not call forth this stratum of jurists - photo 1

And why then did capitalist interests not call forth this stratum of jurists andthis type of law in China or India? How did it happen that scientific, artistic,and economic development, as well as state-building, were not directed in Chinaand India into those tracks of rationalization specific to the West?(Weber, 2011, p. 245; emphasis in original)

The origin of economic rationalism depends not only on an advanced development oftechnology and law but also on the capacity and disposition of persons toorganize their lives in a practical-rational manner. Wherever magical andreligious forces have inhibited the unfolding of this organized life, thedevelopment of an organized life oriented systematically toward economicactivity has confronted broad-ranging internal resistance. (Weber, 2011, p. 246;emphasis in original)

Behind the [varieties of belief was] a stand regarding something in the actualworld which was experienced as specifically senseless. Thus, the demand hasbeen implied that the world order in its totality is, could, and should somehowbe a meaningful cosmos. (Weber, 2011, p. 242)

[Weber] revealed to us things we had not seen before in such contexts. What heelucidated, what he left to us as his legacy, has today become part and parcelof our political, social, and scientific thinking to a far greater extent thanwe ourselves could possibly have realized half a century ago. (Loewenstein,1966, p. 104)
