Abstract:Although Max Weber is best known to non-specialists for The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism, a work as controversial as it is famous, he also wrote extensively on the world's other major religions, and this included the religions of India. In what follows, I examine what he had say about Jainism and some of the issues to which it gives rise. I begin with some Jain basics followed by a brief account of what Weber himself had to say about the Jains. I then discuss the Jains as traders and as traders among other traders, after which I consider the issue of Weber's relevance to an understanding of the Jains.
摘要:对于非专业人士来说，马克斯·韦伯最为人所知的著作是《新教伦理与资本主义精神》(The Protestant ethics and The Spirit of Capitalism)，尽管这部著作颇具争议，但他对世界上其他主要宗教也有广泛的研究，其中包括印度的宗教。接下来，我将探讨他对耆那教的看法，以及由此引发的一些问题。我从耆那教的一些基本知识开始，然后简要介绍韦伯自己对耆那教的看法。然后，我将耆那教徒作为商人和商人中的商人进行讨论，之后，我将考虑韦伯与理解耆那教徒的相关性问题。

Abstract:The article challenges the assumptions that current public administration is a direct application of Max Weber's ideal type of rational-legal bureaucracy. The prevailing theory of public administration is the Rational Behavioral Hypothesis which this article argues is an instrumentalized version of Weber's ideal type and as such it presumes, invalidly, the attributes of legal-rationality. Of the majority of civil services across the world employing an estimated half a billion officials, Weberian criteria of efficiency, rationality, and impartiality to politicans and citizens alike is lacking. Yet despite these failings bureaucratic practice is assumed to be Weberian. The author argues that the Rational Behavioral Hypothesis has to be replaced by the ‘Administrative Behavior hypothesis’ which is taken from Herbert Simon. Bruce Ackerman's account of bureaucracy as the fourth pillar of modern constitutionalism is criticised for its reliance on the cultural formation of bureaucratic elites. The role of New Public Management and the Neo-Weberian State in public administration are assessed.

Abstract:How can China's eminence in the global economy during the era from 1000 to 1750 be reconciled with its Confucian system of government and administration, which allegedly did not focus on the economy at all? The answer might lie in the concept of the Mandate of Heaven, which provided the Confucian bureaucracy with a severe performance imperative, a point made forcefully if very implicitly—almost unconsciously—by Max Weber in his Confucianism study. Perhaps because of this implicitness, however, no study on the MoH so far has apparently utilized Weber, while Weber-on-China studies have only rarely looked at his use of the Mandate of Heaven. This essay fills these lacunae from the Public Administration perspective, bringing the discussion up to today.
