The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism
As a trenchant and still controversial analysis of how the historical phases of Christianity have conditioned the ethical, political, economic, and social lives of the peoples of the West -- and, later, the world -- Weber's work continues to be a touchstone for the ongoing debate on the origins of capitalism and the future course of economic history.

You can see the origins of that in Weber's hugely influential work "The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism." (1904) It's worth restating the main thesis of this book. Weber argues capitalism has its roots in a Protestant ethic of hard work 15/

@of_hurts Interesting! I'll take a look. (I think this is a play on the title of Max Weber's famous "The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism," published in 1905. I did read that one in college.)
