The next chapter will examine Weber’s understanding of goal-rational action, its rise to a position of domination in the modern world, and why his outlook is so pessimistic. The study of The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism in the next chapter will also demonstrate how Weber employed his methodological prescriptions and the manner in which Weber’s thought has renewed relevance for contemporary sociology as a bridge from modernist to postmodernist approaches within the discipline.
