The system was described in 1976 by Guy Ottewell and also by Robert J. Weber, who coined the term " approval voting.

These are sometimes called Weber functions after Heinrich Martin Weber, and also Neumann functions after Carl Neumann.

Franz Schubert is also something of a transitional figure, as are Johann Nepomuk Hummel, Mauro Giuliani, Friedrich Kuhlau, Fernando Sor, Luigi Cherubini, Jan Ladislav Dussek, and Carl Maria von Weber.

The concept is also present in the work of Max Weber, Gilles Deleuze, and Edmund Husserl.

Human rights are also described as a sociological pattern of rule setting ( as in the sociological theory of law and the work of Weber ).

Weber translated this compliment also.

Hogan also espoused the idea that the Holocaust didn't happen in the manner described by mainstream historians, writing that he found the work of Arthur Butz and Mark Weber to be " more scholarly, scientific, and convincing than what the history written by the victors says.

Weber also made a variety of other contributions in economic history, as well as economic theory and methodology.

The young Weber and his brother Alfred, who also became a sociologist and economist, thrived in this intellectual atmosphere.

Over time, Weber would also be significantly affected by the marital tension between his father, " a man who enjoyed earthly pleasures ," and his mother, a devout Calvinist " who sought to lead an ascetic life.

Weber also remained active in the Verein and the Evangelical Social Congress.

Weber also ran, unsuccessfully, for a parliamentary seat, as a member of the liberal German Democratic Party, which he had co-founded.

Weber was also influenced by Kantian ethics, which he nonetheless came to think of as obsolete in a modern age lacking in religious certainties.

Weber also saw rationalisation as one of the main factors setting the European West apart from the rest of the world.

Weber was ambivalent towards rationalisation ; while admitting it was responsible for many advances, in particular, freeing humans from traditional, restrictive and illogical social guidelines, he also criticised it for dehumanising individuals as " cogs in the machine " and curtailing their freedom, trapping them in the bureaucratic iron cage of rationality and bureaucracy.

Weber also proposed a socioevolutionary model of religious change, showing that in general, societies have moved from magic to polytheism, then to pantheism, monotheism and finally, ethical monotheism.

Weber also noted that societies having more Protestants were those with a more highly developed capitalist economy.

Weber juxtaposed such Messianic prophecies ( also called ethical prophecies ), notably from the Near East region to the exemplary prophecies found on the Asiatic mainland, focused more on reaching to the educated elites and enlightening them on the proper ways to live one's life, usually with little emphasis on hard work and the material world.

While recognising bureaucracy as the most efficient form of organisation and even indispensable for the modern state, Weber also saw it as a threat to individual freedoms and the ongoing bureaucratisation as leading to a " polar night of icy darkness ", in which increasing rationalisation of human life traps individuals in the aforementioned " iron cage " of bureaucratic, rule-based, rational control.

Weber also formulated a three-component theory of stratification, with Social class, Social status and Political party as conceptually distinct elements.

Unlike other historicists, Weber also accepted the marginal theory of value ( also called " marginalism ") and taught it to his students.

Knight also wrote in 1956 that Max Weber was the only economist who dealt with the problem of understanding the emergence of modern capitalism " from the angle which alone can yield an answer to such questions, that is, the angle of comparative history in the broad sense.

Weber writes that status groups emerge out of " the house of honor.

Reinhard Bendix summarising the Weber work writes:

Clifford Geertz writes, " Believing, with Max Weber, that man is an animal suspended in webs of significance he himself has spun, I take culture to be those webs, and the analysis of it to be therefore not an experimental science in search of law but an interpretive one in search of meaning.

Commenting on the Vamsa Brahmana list of Vedic teachers, Albrecht Weber writes: " One fact deserves to be especially noticed here, namely, that several of the teachers mentioned in the Vamsa Brahmana, by their very names, points us directly to the north-west of India, e. g. Kamboja Aupamanyava, Madaragara Saungayani, Sati Aushtrakshi, Salamkayana and Kauhala ".

" Weber argued that, as human society became increasingly rational, the need to explain why good people suffered and evil people prospered became more important because religion casts the world as a " meaningful cosmos ".

Weber framed the problem of evil as the dilemma that the good can suffer and the evil can prosper, which became more important as religion became more sophisticated.

A theodicy of good fortune seeks to justify the good fortune of people in society ; Weber believed that those who are successful are not satisfied unless they can justify why they deserve to be successful.

In an influential theoretical article, Rolnick and Weber ( 1986 ) argued that bad money would drive good money to a premium rather than driving it out of circulation.

Rolnick and Weber ignored the influence of legal tender legislation which requires people to accept both good and bad money as if they were of equal value.

Weber argued that, while several factors were good for development of a capitalist economy ( long periods of peace, improved control of rivers, population growth, freedom to acquire land and move outside of native community, freedom of choosing the occupation ), they were outweighed by others ( mostly stemming from religion ) in China:

The barcarole was a popular form in opera, where the apparently artless sentimental style of the folklike song could be put to good use: in addition to the Offenbach example, Paisiello, Weber, and Rossini wrote arias that were barcaroles, Gaetano Donizetti set the Venetian scene at the opening of Marino Faliero ( 1835 ) with a barcarole for a gondolier and chorus, and Verdi included a barcarole in Un ballo in maschera ( i. e., Richard's atmospheric " Di ’ tu se fidele il flutto m ’ aspetta " in Act I ).

W. L. Weber was Mr. Adams ’ good friend.

The Theodicy of fortune and misfortune within sociology is the theory, as Weber suggested, of how " members of different social classes adopt different belief systems, or theodices, to explain their social situation.

Having achieved both fame and fortune, in 1895 Weber decided to part company with the Moulin Rouge and strike out on her own.

Weber defines the importance of societal class within religion by examining the difference between the two theodicies and to what class structures they apply.

For theodicies of suffering, Weber argued that three different kinds of theodicy emerged-predestination, dualism, and karma-all of which attempt to satisfy the human need for meaning, and he believed that the quest for meaning, when considered in light of suffering, becomes the problem of suffering.

Carl Maria von Weber, a relative of Mozart by marriage whom Wagner has characterized as the most German of German composers, is said to have refused to join Ludlams-Höhle, a social club of which Salieri was a member and avoided having anything to do with him.

The waltz with its modern hold took root in England in about 1812 ; in 1819 Carl Maria von Weber wrote Invitation to the Dance, which marked the adoption of the waltz form into the sphere of absolute music.

The Ultimate end is a concept in the moral philosophy of Max Weber, in which individuals act in a faithful, rather than rational, manner.

Gauss ordered a magnetic observatory to be built in the garden of the observatory, and with Weber founded the " Magnetischer Verein " ( magnetic club in German ), which supported measurements of Earth's magnetic field in many regions of the world.

Several of Dole's other campaign ideas came from Kemp and Bill Bennett's Empower America, which had Jeane Kirkpatrick, Weber, Forbes and Alexander as principals.

Weber is perhaps best known for his thesis combining economic sociology and the sociology of religion, elaborated in his book The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism, in which he proposed that ascetic Protestantism was one of the major " elective affinities " associated with the rise in the Western world of market-driven capitalism and the rational-legal nation-state.

In another major work, Politics as a Vocation, Weber defined the state as an entity which successfully claims a " monopoly on the legitimate use of violence ".

After his first few years as a student, during which he spent much time " drinking beer and fencing ," Weber would increasingly take his mother's side in family arguments and grew estranged from his father.

Weber was put in charge of the study and wrote a large part of the final report, which generated considerable attention and controversy and marked the beginning of Weber's renown as a social scientist.

In 1904, Weber began to publish some of his most seminal papers in this journal, notably his essay The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism, which became his most famous work and laid the foundations for his later research on the impact of cultures and religions on the development of economic systems.

He opposed both the leftist German Revolution of 1918 – 1919 and the ratification of the Treaty of Versailles, a principled position that defied the political alignments in Germany at that time and which may have prevented Friedrich Ebert, the new social-democratic President of Germany, from appointing Weber as minister or ambassador.

) solely as the result and the context of the actions of individual persons, can be traced to Weber, particularly to the first chapter of Economy and Society, in which he argues that only individuals " can be treated as agents in a course of subjectively understandable action.

" In other words, Weber argued that social phenomena can be understood scientifically only to the extent that they are captured by models of the behaviour of purposeful individuals, models which Weber called " ideal types ," from which actual historical events will necessarily deviate due to accidental and irrational factors.

Weber began his studies of the subject in The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism, in which he argued that the redefinition of the connection between work and piety in Protestantism and especially in ascetic Protestant denominations, particularly Calvinism, shifted human effort towards rational efforts aimed at achieving economic gain.

Weber continued his investigation into this matter in later works, notably in his studies on bureaucracy and on the classification of legitimate authority into three types – Rational-legal, traditional and charismatic – of which the legitimate ( or rational ) is the dominant one in the modern world.

Weber focused on those aspects of Chinese society that were different from those of Western Europe, especially those aspects which contrasted with Puritanism.

In Ancient Judaism, his fourth major work on the sociology of religion, Weber attempted to explain the factors which resulted in the early differences between Oriental and Occidental religiosity.

Therein, Weber unveils the definition of the state as that entity which possesses a delegatable monopoly on the legitimate use of physical force.
