Assuming that the “ethical neutrality” in sociology and economics involves Weber’s dismissal of classical philosophical questions concerning the good society and the best form of government, the aim of this paper is to demonstrate that Weber’s call for coherence and decency – beyond the distinction of the ethic of conviction (Gesinnungsethik) and the ethic of responsibility (Verantwortungsethik) – is still relevant for political philosophy and philosophers who reflect on the relations between ethics and politics.itaWith permission of the license/copyright holderEthic of responsibilityMax WeberPolitical ethicsPolitical philosophyPolitical ethicsMethods of ethicsGeneral and historicalPhilosophical ethicsArticle
