Weber and methodology event

Erik Jansson Boström works at the Department of Philosophy at Uppsala University (Sweden). His research area focuses mainly on the ideal type and its foundations. In May 2020 he finished his thesis dissertation: Max Weber and the necessity of ideal types [Max Weber och idealtypernas nödvändighet]. 

Hans Henrik Bruun is an Honorary Professor at the Department of Sociology at the University of Copenhagen (Denmark). His research area focuses on Weber and methodology with indispensable publications such as Science, values and politics in Max Weber’s Methodology (Book, 2016) or Max Weber: collected methodological writings (Book, 2013), co-edited w. Sam Whimster. 

We recommend again visiting our first blog post, in which Erik discussed the subject of Weber’s methodological writings, continuing some of the topics present in his thesis dissertation. 

The event will be held online (via Zoom) and it’s open to all those interested, so share this news with colleagues!  

We’ll share the link of the meeting and details a few days in advance but stay tuned to our Facebook Fanpage for any updates on the event and network.
