Talk:Ausgleich

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

So I'm coming across this term in Talcott Parsons, & I'm fairly sure he is referencing Max Weber, but maybe some German speaker can clarify? Basically it seems there probably needs to be some disambiguation here, between historical & sociologial usage. The exact quote is this: "This problem of the Ausgleich, the ultimate balancing of the motivational & moral economy, is the core of the significance of religion in a sociologial context."
