Lex Cast: Weber, Authority and the Coming Storm (Episode 3)

From dawn of civilization, Man has understood the iron ties between Law and Force. Critical to understand force is to know who has legitimate Authority to rule and use the Coercion of the state to enforce that Authority. In this episode we look at Authority through the genius of Max Weber, who identified three pure types of legitimate authority: 1. Bureaucratic; 2. Traditional; and 3. Charismatic. Weber also predicted the relentless machine of modernization within capitalism and its endless drive to rationalize and systematize all aspects of the human society, down to identity itself, pushing religion, mysticism and even magic aside. The result he also predicted was disenchantment and despair. The answer may be the rise of charismatic personalities who can save society from a soulless machine and man from this pit of monotony and enslavement. But the machine may have a trick up its sleave. Rather than wait to be replaced by the GREAT MAN, the regime seems to have evolved a third form of authority, the 4. Impersonal Charismatic. Driven by the irrational, by power over profit, institutions of the state and their private agents, the corporations, both using vehicles like Woke capitalism hypnotize the population into belief that the institutions and corporations are the source of magic, with extraordinary capacity for holiness and goodness, and wildly charismatic, putting out fake charismatic leaders, who are merely agents of the regime while snuffing out the rise of any true exceptional personal talents in the population. When it feels safe, if we allow that to happy, the bureaucracy will return to routine and impersonal rule.
