Book description:
Karl Lowith's study of Max Weber and Karl Marx is a key interpretation of both the theme of alienation in Marxist theory as well as the subject of rationalization in Weber's sociology. Lowith's philosophical approach, a product of Heidegger's existentialism, shows how both Marx and Weber work toward a common ``life-philosophy.'' Lowith's analysis of the philosophical anthropology of Marxist theory and sociology also demonstrates that much of the ideological dispute between these two branches of thought is the result of a mutual misunderstanding. Lowith's book remains the best short introduction to the differences and similarities between Weber and Marx. This edition also includes a preface from Professor Bryan S. Turner, who demonstrates the book's relevance to contemporary sociology.
