A great sociologist

Max Weber was a German sociologist, philosopher, and political economist whose ideas influenced social theory, social research , and the entire discipline of sociology.  He was born in 1864 and died in 1920, and is often cited, with Durkheim and Marx , as among the three founding creators of sociology.
The work of Weber was based on the study of society and wrote books about them as, “the political and the scientific”, “sociology of power. Types of domination”, “sociology of religion”, “Bag: Introduction to the stock system” and many more.
He wrote a lot of books about the society and the sociologist's work, as I showed you above, but I just have read some chapters of: “Economy and Society” and “The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism”, and when I read those chapters, I really liked them, because all about he said in his books like processes and power relation, we can found in today’s society.
Also he found the relation between the capitalism and the religion, which is a very important study, because thanks to him, we are able to relate an important economic model, that even today is use, with something so elemental for people like the religion. Is for studies like this one that him is very important, especially for the sociology.

Is for that that I like him, because all that I know about his job, I can found in the society in which I live.
