The purpose of the editors is to offer a proper and faithful English translation of some of the most important M. Weber’s essays, basing this translation to the theories of A.F. Tytler (in his Principles of Translation).
The whole volume is divided into four parts (after a preface and an introduction to M. Weber’s figure and work), dealing with the following topics: 1) science and politics; 2) power; 3) religion; 4) social structures.
