Weber Max
La scienza come professione. La politica come professione
br. Il volume comprende il testo delle due conferenze "La scienza come professione" e "La politica come professione" che Max Weber tenne a Monaco rispettivamente nel novembre 1917 e nel gennaio 1919, nell'ambito di un ciclo di conferenze sul "lavoro intellettuale come professione" organizzate dall"'associazione dei liberi studenti", e pubblicate nello stesso 1919. Pronunciate nell'epoca che vide la crisi della potenza tedesca, le due conferenze sono il frutto più maturo della riflessione weberiana sul senso della scienza e della politica, ma soprattutto sul loro rapporto: un rapporto complesso, di rimando reciproco ma soprattutto di distinzione.
