Legal origins in Max Weber's terminology - or how a Sociological Sense is foisted on Legal Expressions

Keywords: Max Weber;

Summary/Abstract: One of the most striking facts in the appropriation of Max Weber is the fact that very different disciplines want to secure his inheritance: The theory of science sees Weber as one of their own, the science of history begins to claim Max Weber for itself, while for sociology it was never in question that their founding father was a sociologist and nothing else, which stands in strange contrast to the fact that Weber put the word "sociology" in distancing quotation marks until the last years of his life. In this picture of the historical and systematic attributions of the discipline, a historical origin of Max Weber is neglected in a strange way, which is completely indisputable: namely his origin in jurisprudence.
