Max Weber-GesamtausgabeBand III/6: Abriß der universalen Sozial- und Wirtschaftsgeschichte. Mit- und Nachschriften 1919-1920 Hrsg. v. Wolfgang Schluchter in Zus.-Arb. m. Joachim Schröder
[An Outline of General Social and Economic History. Volume III/6: Outline of Universal Social and Economic History. Lecture Notes and Transcripts 1919-1920. ]Published in German. The major text presented in this volume appeared in English in 1927 as Max Weber’s General Economic History. It is, however, not a book written by him, but a reconstruction of a lecture, which he delivered during the winter term 1919/20. This reconstruction provided by Siegmund Hellmann and Melchior Palyi on the basis of student notes became very influential. In this volume of the Max Weber-Gesamtausgabe, the reconstruction is presented in a historical-critical manner and combined with lecture notes by students unpublished till now. It allows a comparison between the reconstruction and the student notes and confirms that the reconstruction can be regarded as reliable. The introduction und the editorial reports elaborate the context of the lecture which is Weber’s most comprehensive statement on the history of capitalism.
