Politics As a Vocation - Book by Max Weber

In this seminal essay, sociologist Max Weber examines the nature of political power and the role of politicians in modern society. He famously defines the state as an entity with a monopoly on legitimate use of force and explores the ethical dilemmas faced by political actors. Weber distinguishes between the "ethics of conviction" and the "ethics of responsibility," emphasizing the tensions between ideals and pragmatism in governance.
