		Weber's opening words in the Vorbemerkung to GARS I famously vacillate between an assertion of the 'universal significance and validity' of the Western course of development and the suggestion of a perspectivistic withdrawal of this assertion as being only what we Westerners 'would like to imagine' ('wie wenigstens wir uns gerne vorstellen').

		Weber believed that once a value, end, purpose, or perspective had been established, then a social scientist could conduct a value-free investigation into the most effective means within a system of bringing about the established end.
		Similarly, Weber believed that objective comparisons among systems could also be made once a particular end had been established, acknowledged, and agreed upon, a position that allowed Weber to make what he considered objective comparisons among such economic systems as capitalism and socialism.

	Max Weber, the Ethics of Intention and Value-Free Science
		The rational conflict with the unquestionable values of political intellectuals was inherent in [Max Weber's] enterprise of an objective science of politics.
		To the methodologists preceding Max Weber, a historical or social science could be value-free because its object was constituted by "reference to a value" (weitbeziehende Methode); within the field thus constituted the scientist was then supposed to work without value-judgments.
		Since in the intellectual situation of Weber the existence of a science of order could not be admitted, its content (or as much of it as was possible) had to be introduced by recognizing its historical expressions as facts and causal factors in history.

	Weber - Politics as a Vocation (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		These politicians by virtue of a 'calling,' in the most genuine sense of the word, are of course nowhere the only decisive figures in the cross-currents of the political struggle for power.
		The professional politician must also be economically 'dispensable,' that is, his income must not depend upon the fact that he constantly and personally places his ability and thinking entirely, or at least by far predominantly, in the service of economic acquisition.
		The professional politician who lives 'off' politics may be a pure 'prebendary' or a salaried 'official.' Then the politician receives either income from fees and perquisites for specific services--tips and bribes are only an irregular and formally illegal variant of this category of income--or a fixed income in kind, a money salary, or both.
