First published in 1997, this book is an exegetical work exploring Max Weber's renowned thesis that classes, status groups and parties are all phenomena of the distribution of power within society.
First published in 1997, this book revolves around a textual analysis of the Weberian thesis that ''classes'', ''status groups'' and ''parties’ are phenomena of the distribution of power within a ''community''. An internal reconstruction of Weber’s own ideas on what is called social stratification in contemporary sociological discourse is undertaken. The reason for this reconstruction inheres in the fact that Weber’s thought (especially in the field of social stratification) has been modified and misappropriated to such an extent that Weber himself is usually lost in the commentaries. Moreover, this reconstruction is crucial because the secondary literature does not contain a single account teasing out the analytic structure underlying Weber’s statements on the nature of social inequality in various societies. It is the principal intention of the book, then, to retrieve the essential form and significance of Weber’s ideas on social stratification.
