Weber - “The Profession and Vocation of Politics”
Weber is the speaker in “The Profession and Vocation of Politics” where he largely circumvents topical disquiets regarding his idiosyncratic outlook on the nature of modern-day politics. Weber focuses on illuminating the denotation of politics.
In “The Nation State and Economic Policy”, Weber emphasizes “ the role played by physical and psychological racial differences between nationalities in the economic struggles of existence.” Weber explicates his exacting assessments on the dynamics of economics in addition to data traced in external annals.
Politicians - “The Profession and Vocation of Politics”
Weber explicates, “Every day and every hour, therefore, the politician has to overcome quite trivial, all-too-human enemy within which threatens him from within: common vanity, the mortal enemy of all dedication to a cause and of all distance.” The politicians are foremost actors in politics; for them to stand they must be enthusiastic with the 'calling' of politics.
F.W Foerster - “The Profession and Vocation of Politics”
Regarding F. W. Foerster, Weber writes, “My colleague, F.W. Foerster, a man I hold in the highest personal esteem because of the undoubted integrity of his convictions ( although I reject him unreservedly as a politician), thinks that he can get around the difficulty in his book with the simple thesis that only good can flow from good, only evil from evil.” Weber recognizes F.W. Foerster to validate that their outlooks regarding politics are contradictory. The credit determines that Weber’s assertions vis-à-vis politics are balanced because the recognize disparate perspectives.
