Abstract

This is a review of Leonid G. Ionin’s book devoted to Max Weber’s life and work. The book presents certain facts from Weber’s biography that are not widely known to the Russian audience. The author of the book focuses on Weber’s relationships with the people surrounding him. Aside from that, the author analyzes some elements of Weberian sociology while defining the influence of Protestant ethic on modern capitalism, as well as rationalization theory and the typology of domination. It is argued in the review that Ionin’s book makes an important contribution to the development of Max Weber studies in Russia.
