There Weber became a central figure in the so-called " Weber Circle ," composed of other intellectuals such as his wife Marianne, Georg Jellinek, Ernst Troeltsch, Werner Sombart, Marc Bloch, Robert Michels and György Lukács.

Freed from those obligations, in that year he accepted a position as associate editor of the Archives for Social Science and Social Welfare, where he worked with his colleagues Edgar Jaffé and Werner Sombart.

In German economic discourse it was taken up from Marx's writings by Werner Sombart, particularly in his 1913 text Krieg und Kapitalismus:

The term " late capitalism " was first used by Werner Sombart in his 1902 magnum opus Der Moderne Kapitalismus ; Sombart distinguished between early capitalism, the heyday of capitalism and late capitalism.

Some thinkers, such as Werner Sombart and Max Weber, locate the concept of capital as originating in double-entry bookkeeping, which is thus a foundational innovation in capitalism, Sombart writing in " Medieval and Modern Commercial Enterprise " that:
