Science as a Vocation

Science as a Vocation by Max WeberPublished as "Wissenschaft als Beruf," Gesammlte Aufsaetze zur Wissenschaftslehre (Tubingen, 1922), pp. 524-55. Originally a speech at Munich University, 1918, published in 1919 by Duncker & Humblodt, Munich. From Gerth and C. Wright Mills (Translated and edited), From Max Weber: Essays in Sociology, pp. 129-156, New York: Oxford University Press, 1946. You wish me to speak about ' Science as a Vocation .' Now, we political economists have a pedantic custom, which I should like to follow, of always beginning with the external conditions.

Today this question means, practically and essentially: What are the prospects of a graduate student who is resolved to dedicate himself professionally to Science in university life?
