"One of Weber's contemporaries described him as "a child of the Enlightenment born too late" whose work is a "vitriolic attack on religion." Subsequent Weber scholarship has largely affirmed this valuation of Weber and characterized his scholarship as a manifestation of the very disenchantment that Weber describes. Basit Bilal Koshul's study challenges this valuation by showing Weber to be a postmodern thinker far ahead of his time. Weber's work rejects the disenchanting dualisms of fact vs. value and subject vs. object that are at the heart of the Enlightenment paradigm. Koshul's reading demonstrates that Weber explicitly bridges the fact vs. value, subject vs. object dichotomies and implicitly bridges the religion vs. science divide. On all three counts Weber's work takes the essential steps for disenchanting disenchantment and opening up new horizons of post-disenchantment cultural possibilities - steps that still remain on the misty horizon of social scientific thought and theory in the 21st century."--BOOK JACKET.
