Evaluation =Is/was useful. I am preparing a Web page for my students in Sociology of Knowledge, where Weber is a main "actor". I really enjoyed your page, in fact I will make a link with it. Thanks, Monica Bordon, Full Professor, Sociology of Knowledge.

Your page on Max Weber was right on target for my paper research.  It gave me new perspective, and stimulated an interest in pursuing Weber and others further.

I could have never found the concise coverage you provided in the library.

Thanks once again

Thank you!

Thank you for creating a site such as this, it helped me well with my Social Science subjects.

Sincerely,

Robert

Thanks

i was browsing, thinking of various sites for reference. i anticipate you will get some of my students.  weber has fascinated me for years, and engaged my thinking on several levels during the last few years. doing some of my phd studies at oxford and visiting heidelberg, have only fueled my weber-flames.  i have especially been interested in worldview transformations and weber is an unending source of stimulation on so many levels. i find him perennially fresh.

i have been using lawrence harrision's underdevelopment is a state of mind in one of my classes, finding his insights on the relations between ideas and structures very weberian.  thanks again, for a great website.

Regards,

I found this site wonderful. As a Weber newbie, I found the Zweckrational -> logical optimization -> bueaurcracy -> oligarchy well brought out and very clear.  (Doing a survey assignment on Taylor, Mayo, Weber and Fayol) for ISE 250 Understanding Total Quality and Organizational Learning... Thanks a lot!

I am a student at Salem College majoring in Sociology.  I found your information very easy to read as well as understand and am very grateful.  I also actually enjoyed reading it.  Thank you for all your work.

Thank you for your efforts.  I am working with a Borough (Local Government Authority) in London (England) where the CEOs change management team engaged me to assist staff in coping with the pressures of change.

Not least of these pressures is the manifest 'irrationality' of the organisation and the behaviour of some of its officers.

Understanding helps and your site is pitched at a level that most can access and when that is not possible directly it makes a workpiece that can exercise supervisors in communicating with their staff.

Thank you from all of us.

The only suggestion that I'd make is to identify Rogers State University somewhere on the Weber site.  I had to look around for it since 'rsu'
didn't immediately compute for me.

I was just wondering what you thought of this area especially in regards to Weber.

Thanking you in advance for any ideas.

Yours Sincerely

I am currently preparing a short presentation on Max Weber for my Public Administration class (PSC 361), and I found your web page to be extremely
helpful, as it offers concise information about Max Weber's understanding of bureaucracy. The way you presented your information makes it easy to access, and even easier to understand. Max Weber is not new to me, as he was one of the first scholars I had to read when I started college in Germany (Munich School of Political Science), my fellow American students here at the University of Montana, however, are in a different situation, and with the help of your web page it will extremely easy for me to tell them about the principles and basic tenets of Max Weber's work. Thank you.

Weber seems to suggest that there are only two routes for a person to take; as a bureaucrat or as a dilettante.

What a dreaful vision of the future...

I think it's interesting to note the disimilarities between the bureacracies
that Weber studied and the one's we currently participate in. Most notedly,
Weber describes that the bureaucracies were heirarchical, with information
traveling up and directives traveling down. Wouldn't he flip his lid if he
could get a good long look at the internet? And not only that, but how about
open source development?

Geez... if ever I was thankful for Post Modernism it was after reading this guy's stuff. (!)

Evaluation =Yes, I liked your page - for the first time an indication how to reference webpages properly! Easy-to-use, although I needed my German since the expressions used in my study books are different ones! Only one minor problem: what/where is 'rsu'? I could not access the home page. Best wishes and thanks. C.R., England

I found the site incredible informative. I am studying a Business degree and was researching Max Weber for an organisational project. Your web site turned
what was a very uninformative task into an enjoyable reasearch article,
thanx!!
