Max Weber, Nation, Sociology, Invention, EssentialismAbstract
The article reviews the two perspectives on the ‘idea of the nation’ in the work of Max Weber. While his contributions to Sociology favor an ‘inventionist’ strategy, in its political interventions the strategy is mainly that of an ‘essentialist’ type. Following the main components of the ‘idea of the nation’, the paper presents two
cases of American nations which are examples of both of the author’s analytical perspectives.
