Edward C Page

Weber's Scorecard

State Development, Bureaucracy, and Officialdom in Europe Since Charlemagne

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book examines Max Weber's understanding of bureaucracy by applying his ideas to the development of officialdom from the ninth century to the present in six European countries. It shows that Weber's scorecard has a mixed record, especially weak in its account of the development of monocracy and formalism.
