The author of "History or Teleology? Marx vs. Weber" reviews common scholastic viewpoints regarding Marx and Weber. Weber is often lauded for his multifaceted and multidisciplinary explanation of human history. Unlike Marx, Weber addressed a multitude of variables that affect sociological realities. Yet the author notes that Weber can be criticized for his own brand of determinism and fatalism and also for his theoretical biases.
Central to both Marx and Weber's arguments is the notion that history is linear and progressive. Human evolution is also progressing toward increasingly complex but also increasingly sensible social and economic systems. The central difference between Marx and Weber's accounts of capitalism is in their methods and not necessarily in their conclusions. Both Marx and Weber viewed capitalism as the culmination of millennia of human history and of the problematic social relationships that determined human history. Marx approached his analysis as a...
Both Marx and Weber factored in politics. Their mutual dislike of capitalism proves that Marx and Weber can be examined as complementary theorists.
Far from incompatible, Marx and Weber simply approached their sociology differently. Weber incorporated a spiritual or at least an amaterialistic vision into his analyses.

Peled further argues that Rousseau was not able to solve this paradox and it was one of the reasons why he became increasingly pessimistic about modernity. But Rousseau's attempts to reconcile the contradiction in his approach are worth looking at in details. Although Rousseau abhorred inequality that rose out of private property, he did not hold any illusions about modernity. He believed
" Normality in this case, according to Goffman, represents a situation where everything appears contrary to what is about to take place, yet again with fewer fortunes of overturning the situation. Most of Goffman's first theoretical ideas are dramaturgical in nature.

Weber's Class Conflict Theory Weber defined 'class' as having in common "a specific causal component of their life chances in so far as (2) this component is represented exclusively by economic interests in the possession of goods and opportunities for income, and (3) it is represented under the conditions of the commodity or labor market" (Kasler, 1988, p.15). Class position does not necessarily lead to class ideological stance or class-directed action.
Weber and Heller et. al. with regard to worker's participation and control in the workplace. We will see throughout the essay that the desire for worker participation is directly related to the worker longing to regain their ownership over the means of production that might have been taken from them for a number of technical, social or commercial reasons that the participatory organs seek to mitigate. Early on, Weber said
