Even so, he thought that economic systems were heavily influenced by other factors in a society.
Unlike many early analysts who believed that values could not be separated from the research process, Weber emphasized that sociology should be value free—research should be conducted in a scientific manner and should exclude the researcher’s personal values and economic interests (Turner, Beeghley, and Powers, 2002). However, Weber realized that social behavior cannot be analyzed by the objective criteria that we use to measure such things as temperature or weight. Although he recognized that sociologists cannot be totally value free, Weber stressed that they should employ verstehen (German for “understanding” or “insight”) to gain the ability to see the world as others see it. In contemporary sociology, Weber’s idea is incorporated into the concept of the sociological imagination (discussed earlier in this chapter).
