Sociological Theory: Skeleton Key 1 to Max Weber's Religion of China and Religion of India

Описание к видео Sociological Theory: Skeleton Key 1 to Max Weber's Religion of China and Religion of India

This lecture places Weber's writings on Asian religions (Confucianism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Jainism) in the context of his writings on the Protestant Ethic and Spirit of Capitalism Cycle. Weber's Presuppositions of Modern Capitalism are reviewed from General Economic History, with an emphasis upon means-ends rationality and its historical barriers in tradition and magic. The video ends with an overview of the differences between Christian Protestantism and the religions of Asia and China that Weber believed were decisive.
