About this product
Product Information
First published in 1905, The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism is one of the most renowned and controversial works of modern social science. It is a brilliant book that studies the psychological conditions which made possible the development of capitalist civilisation. The book analyses the connection between the spread of Calvinism and a new attitude towards the pursuit of wealth in post-Reformation Europe and England, and attitude which permitted, encouraged even sanctified the human quest for prosperity. This new edition has been translated and introduced by internationally acclaimed Weberian scholar Stephen Kalberg. With a precise and nuanced rendering of Webers style and arguments, Kalberg clarifies the various twists and turns of Webers complex lines of reasoning. Kalbergs introduction examines the controversy surrounding the book and summarizes major aspects of Webers analysis. A glossary of major terms is included to make this the clearest, most readable edition of this classic text yet available.
