Resumo: Max Weber is one of the leading names in modern sociology. An economist, sociologist and philosopher, the German theoretician conducted several studies in comparative history and was one of the most influential authors to study capitalism, bureaucracy and religion. The erudition and the colossal amount of knowledge he produced reveal the sharpness and rare grasping ability of his mind. This essay addresses the author's tragic view of politics and considers him an exponent of tragic thinking. Weber appropriated the works of Nietzsche and Simmel to reveal the inevitability of conflict, the paradoxes, dilemmas, tensions, the power of the imponderable, and the inescapable oscillation between the desirable and the possible within the realm of politics. We consider that this essay contributes by revisiting and rethinking a classic author from a perspective that is innovative, refreshing and fruitful to sociological and political thinking.

Economista, sociólogo, filósofo alemán, él realizó diversos estudios de historia comparativa y fue uno de los autores más influyentes del estudio del capitalismo, de la burocracia y de la religión. El eruditismo y la masa colosal de conocimientos producidos por Weber revelan la agudeza y la rara capacidad de aprehensión de su mente. El presente ensayo aborda la visión trágica del autor acerca de la política y lo considera un exponente del pensamiento trágico. Weber se apropió de las obras de Nietzsche y Simmel para revelar la inevitabilidad del conflicto, las paradojas, los dilemas, las tensiones, la fuerza de lo imponderable, la inexcusable oscilación entre lo deseable y lo posible en el reino de la política. Consideramos que el ensayo contribuye el revisitar y repensar un autor clásico bajo una perspectiva innovadora, renovadora y fecunda para el pensamiento sociológico y político.Max Weber é um dos principais nomes da sociologia moderna.
