- "Critically" (120 pages) where we find a set of four long sections of Max Weber as responses to criticisms and questions raised as "The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism" when it was published in 1904. Besides the "Critically" aim to give new arguments to the thesis of Max Weber in the 1910s which led to a Protestant lascétisme socioeconomic scheme more capitalist-based savings (that is one of arguments).
