书籍简介
This book includes two of Max Weber's popular speeches: "Science as a Vocation" and "Politics as a Vocation".
These two lectures were delivered around the end of World War I. The world of the past had collapsed, and a new social and political order had yet to take shape. A collective atmosphere of confusion and left-leaning political romanticism permeated Germany's youth. Facing an audience hungry for meaning and prophecy, Weber deliberately distanced himself from the tumultuous current events, situating his subject within the context of intellectual and social history. He thus offered a fundamental diagnosis of the modern world, applying this diagnosis to the political situation facing Germany: In a disenchanted world, can scholarship and politics be vocations? Can the unity of knowing about the world and acting on it be achieved in either scholarship or politics? Weber's answers were cold and restrained, tinged with a poignant sentiment and profound implications. His principle of value neutrality and the confrontation between an ethic of responsibility and an ethic of the heart continue to inspire our academic reflection and political practice.
