Book Description
This is the first edition in any language of all of Max Weber's writings on academic and political vocations.

Max Weber made many significant interpretations of both academic and political vocations in his two lectures on Science as a Vocation (Wissenschaft als Beruf, 1917) and Politics as a Vocation (Politik als Beruf) 1919), as well as in a series of newspaper articles including those written between 1908 and 1920. Since these writings are of more than historical interest, there was a need to bring them all together in a single volume. Newly translated and annotated, this collection comprises both lectures plus 32 articles which Weber wrote on academia. Most of these have not been translated before.

In the introduction, Prof. Dreijmanis relates the academic and political vocations to each other conceptually, showing that there is considerable overlap and some convergence: the need for 'passion,' an inward calling, as well as career insecurity in both vocations.

Dreijmanis then examines the person of Weber and provides a new view of him, in part through the lens of Carl C. Jung's theory of psychological types as further developed by the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). As an extravert with a powerful thinking function and intellect, he was driven to take an interest in events outside himself and to speak his mind.

The new translations, by Gordon C. Wells, are faithful to Weber's style of expression, and they correct an accumulation of errors in the oft-translated essays on Politics and Science.

Contains Glossary, Bibliography, Names Index, Subject Index.

Review
According to editor Dreijmanis (political science, U. Bremen), Weber's Myers-Briggs Type Indicator describes the noted sociologist as an extrovert with a strong inclination toward the intellectual, tendencies that generated these essays on academia, including the famous "Science as a Vocation" and "Politics as a Vocation." Dreijmanis provides other contextual information on Weber, including insights into the illness that kept Weber from much involvement with academic life, and describes the sociologist's intellectual environment. Independent translator Wells captures the essence of Weber in his translations, many of which appear for the first time in English.

[The book] includes articles on academic freedom in German universities, pedagogy, professionalism, the effects of social democrats in teaching positions, on the work and thought of contemporary professors, and on the worth of professional and academic organizations. Weber's commentary on the Althoff system is particularly interesting, as is Weber's declaration of withdrawal from the Allemannia Fraternity.
