Biography of albert einstein
Through his insistence on the need for objectivity in scholarship and his analysis of human action in terms of motivation, Weber profoundly influenced sociological theory.
Early life and family relationships.
Weber was born in Erfurt, the eldest son of an aspiring liberal politician whose family had become wealthy in the German linen industry.
The father soon joined the more compliant, pro-Bismarckian "National-Liberals" and moved to Berlin, where he became a member of the Prussian House of Deputies (1868-97) and the Reichstag (1872-84). As such he became part of the Berlin social milieu and entertained in his house men prominent in scholarship and politics.
