His uncle was a professor and was also very liberal in his thinking which. Weber thought we needed a liberal political system combined with a capitalist economy (he didn"t believe in socialism/communism). Because of his father"s wishes for max to follow his footsteps, he started law school in 1882 at the university of heidelberg. He spent a lot of time fencing and drinking. His parents were upset and had him transfer somewhere closer to them so they could keep tabs on him (university of berlin). After graduation he started working as a junior barrister, but he also decided to start a. Phd in law, which he received in 1889. Weber had to decide whether he wanted to be a lawyer or an academic (chose academia and gave up law).
