亲和性机制或“虚假”命题——《新教伦理与资本主义精神》的逻辑缺憾

In Max Weber’s The Protestant Ethic And The Spirit Of Capitalism,how the relationship(no matter causality or elective affinity)between“the protestant ethic”and “the spirit of capitalism”be constructed is an important question.This paper assumed that there was an analyzable relationship between the two issues,and tried to explore the mechanism of the relationship that the work needed.According to this mechanism,the paper showed some problems in Weber’s logic.Weber’s proposition would be sham,if the relationship between“the protestant ethic” and “the spirit of capitalism” couldn’t be analyzed.The author pointed out that any action of overdrawing Weber’s proposition would be wrong.
