Weber was also concerned that large-scale organizations (bureaucracies) were becoming increasingly oriented toward routine administration and a specialized division of labor, which he believed were destructive to human vitality and freedom.

From this view, bureaucratic domination can be used to maintain powerful (capitalist) interests in society. As discussed in Chapter 5 (“Groups and Organizations”), Weber’s work on bureaucracy has had a far-reaching impact.
