Deconstruction and Modernism: Axeĺ Haegerstròm and Max Weber | Chapter 10 | New Horizons in Education and Social Studies Vol. 7

 In both general philosophy and social criticism, Axel Hägerström and Max Weber published a variety of books and essays, the former concentrating on ontology and epistemology, while the latter included a painstaking cultural critique aimed at demystifying existing moral conceptions, the heralded religion and authoritative law. In a very original way, Weber built a meta-science, choosing the best out of German theory in particular. He was no Kantian, nor was he a positivist. His description of the inner aspect of conduct, Sinn, subjective sense, is very important today.

Philosophy of Science and Political Inquiry – Notes on Dowding, Weber and Myrdal| Chapter7 | New Horizons in Education and Social Studies Vol. 5

 

An fascinating and stimulating book on the importance (R) of general philosophical observations to the conduct of political science research was written by Professor Dowding. In this article, because of the importance (R) difficulty, I doubt his optimistic interpretation. A collection of metaphysical questions must be dealt with by the social sciences, but they hardly belong to general ontological or epistemological theories.
