I am very interested in the Ideal Type Models put forward by Max Weber, especially his views on Patriarchy, Patrimonial prebendalism, Patrimonial feudalism, mixed cases of Pp & Pf, early stages of modern capitalism, and "legitimate authority". I feel that Weber's ideas need to be more widely known.

I am very interested in the ideal type approach of Max Weber. I coined the term "Ideal Type Models". In ITM is a "set" of ideal types. So: {ITM/(ITM = it-1, it-2, it-3, ... it-n). I believe this is implicit in Weber's ouevre but rarely recognized.
