Description

Mineola, NY: Dover Publications , 2003. Paperback. Very Good. Clean, tight, unmarked; light age tanning; light wear to inside corners; otherwise absolute minimal wear; appears unread; The Protestant ethic - a moral code stressing hard work, asceticism, and the rational organization of one's lie in the service of God - was made famous by sociologist and political economist Max Weber. In this study, Weber opposed the Marxist concept of dialectical materialism. In his view, economic forces were not responsible for producing capitalism. Religious convictions played a significant part in providing the motivations that drove man to work hard even in the absence of need.
