Max Weber. Ordinamenti e qualità umane
2006
Prendendo in considerazione la "Prolusione" che Weber tenne a Friburgo e la conferenza di Monaco sulla "Politica come professione", il saggio si sviluppa attraverso tre paradigmi di confronto tematico tra ordinamento e qualità umana, di cui il primo riguarda l'ordinamento socio-economico degli spazi aperti oltre l'Elba e la qualità umana delle nazionalità che vi lavorano; il secondo l'ordinamento degli spazi chiusi della grande industria e le qualità professionali dei prestatori d'opera; il terzo l'ordinamento politico e le qualità umane di coloro che prestano servizio politico professionale o che sono chiamati (Beruf)alla politica.
Les trois types d’hommes politiques professionnels chez Max Weber: Une approche rhetorique
2014
Le texte qu’on va lire se propose d’analyser la question de la professionnalisation du politique à partir d’une approche rhétorique ; je reviendrai pour ce faire sur trois idéaltypes historiquement avérés : le fonctionnaire de parti, le président et le parlementaire – trois figures attestées dans l’œuvre de Max Weber. Si chacune de ces figures renvoie à l’interprétation wébérienne de la tendance dominante de l’époque, elles ressortissent toutes trois à des genres rhétoriques dissemblables. Ces trois types de politicien renvoient en outre à différents aspects de l’histoire de la démocratisation et de la parlementarisation du politique. peerReviewed
Submitting “Alternative Facts” to Debate: A Weberian Perspective on Post-truth Politics
2018
'Oxford Dictionaries' chose “post-truth” as the “Word of the Year 2016”, while the association of German linguists (Gesellschaft für deutsche Sprache) did the same for '“postfaktische Politik'”. “Alternative facts”, launched by Kellyanne Conway concerning the attendance at Donald Trump’s inaugural, was a third variant in this cluster. In this article, I shall discuss Max Weber’s parliamentary perspective on the critique of given facts and of the powers of science in relation to the debates around post-truth politics. A critical assessment of Leo Strauss’s critique of Weber as a nihilist and relativist introduces the problematic. One aim of the article is to illustrate how even trivial sloga…

Rethinking Political Representation from the Perspective of Rhetorical Genres
2019
This article is a thought experiment. It constructs ideal types of political representation in the sense of Max Weber. Inspired by Quentin Skinner and others, the aim is to give a rhetorical turn to contemporary debates on representation. The core idea is to claim an ‘elective affinity’ (Wahlverwandschaft, as Weber says following Goethe) between forms of representation and rhetorical genres of their justification. The four ideal types of political representation are designated as plebiscitary, diplomatic, advocatory, and parliamentary, corresponding to the epideictic, negotiating, forensic, and deliberative genres of rhetoric as the respective ways to plausibly appeal to the audience. I dis…
Valori perduti e perduta libertà. Croce e il dibattito tedesco sulla relatività dei valori
2017
The relativism of values (Werterelativismus) is a problem very central for the historicism debate, which concerned historians and phi- losophers at the beginning of the twentieth century. The historization of all knowledge and all values leads to their historical devaluation. How can values still be formulated and maintained in face of this relativization? This was the question of theorists such as Otto Hintze, Friedrich Meinecke, Max Weber and Ernst Troeltsch, as well as of the philosopher Benedetto Croce in times of emerging Fascism, that was regarded as a political and moral threat. As representatives of an intellectual and social liberalism, these academics developed their own strategie…
Max Weber ja Euroopan Unioni
2020
Emeritusprofessori Kari Palonen avaa Max Webein yhteyttä Euroopan Unioniin. Koska Weber kuoli espanjantautiin kesäkuussa 1920, hänellä ei kuitenkaan voinut olla mitään käsitystä Euroopan unionista, sellaisena kuin me sen tunnemme. Palonen lähestyykin Euroopan Unionia Weberin ajatusten kautta, joissa esimerkiksi ymmärretään toteutuneita mahdollisuuksia vertaamalla niitä toteutumattomiin. Palonen ei myöskään ole ainoa Weber-tutkija, joka on pohtinut Weberin suhdetta Euroopan integraatioon.

The Supranational Dimension in Max Weber’s Vision of Politics
2019
Max Weber analyzed politics from the perspective of Chancen for actors, and he never separated world politics from domestic politics. The “Westphalian balance” between great European powers shaped Weber’s views on international polity. However, he also regarded Western individualism, human rights, and parliamentary democracy as necessary qualities to possess in order to be recognized as a great power. This vision provided the basis for his wartime critique of the expansionist tendencies in German foreign policy and for his demand for the parliamentarization of German politics. After the end of World War I, Weber used Woodrow Wilson’s idea of the League of Nations as the basis for a proposal…
