Max Weber Libros

Economía y sociedad se presenta como esbozo titánico de la llamada sociología comprensiva. A lo largo de una exposición no por compleja y detallada menos dueña de una cohesión estructural, Max Weber estudia desde los conceptos fundamentales de la sociología y la economía hasta los diversos tipos de dominación, desde la evolución de derecho hasta los fundamentos sociológicos de la música, amplio apéndice que orienta a los estudiosos por una senda que el mismo autor no pudo ya recorrer. Uno de los méritos mayores de esta obra reside en la amplitud de una perspectiva capaz de dar cuenta del modo más comprensivo -para emplear el término de Weber- de la evolución social, política y cultural de la humanidad. Economía y sociedad también adelanta una ruptura que sólo habría de generalizarse años después. Weber se abstuvo de reducir el juego de tensiones y distensiones de la historia humana al horizonte occidental, como sucede en tantos otros autores; su obra dedica particular atención a las culturas orientales China e India, con lo cual proporciona sólido fundamento al examen justo de una de las situaciones criticas de nuestros días: la tensión Oriente-Occidente.

El afán de lucro, la tendencia a enriquecerse, sobre todo monetariamente, nada tienen que ver con el capitalismo. Son tendencias de todas las clases sociales.

In Zero-Day Rising, the third book of the BetterWorld trilogy, Kiyoko is tired of hiding and grieving, and has decided to strike back. In the first volume of the critically acclaimed BetterWorld cyberpunk trilogy, Kiyoko's older sister Waylee and their hacktivist friends exposed a conspiracy between MediaCorp and U.S. President Rand to control the flow of information and run the world on behalf of a cabal of billionaires. In volume two, Waylee faced life imprisonment, while Kiyoko and her friends were hunted by a team of ruthless mercenaries. In Zero-Day Rising, Kiyoko resolves to free her sister and bring down President Rand and MediaCorp. However, MediaCorp unleashes its ultimate plan: direct mind control with cerebral implants. Can Kiyoko and Waylee's team stop them? Can they penetrate MediaCorp's networks and end the company's grip over humanity? All while eluding the biggest manhunt in history, in a country where everyone and everything is under surveillance?
