The explosive power of Max Weber’s thesis derived from the correlation of two concepts, Protestantism and capitalism. The words capitalism or spirits of capitalism are used in a very particular sense. They mean no less than the entire inner structure governing Western society’s attitudes. Not only its economy but also its legal system, its political structure, its institutionalized sciences and technology, its mathematically based music and architecture. Its economic modes of operation, works discipline and accountancy methods are all regarded as a whole life is rationality by Max Weber.
