Abstract

The article reviews the methodology of "ideal types" proposed by M. Weber to the analysis of political relations and the transition to biopolitics. It is noted that M. Weber considered the types of political actions as a form of domination and subordination. Three types of political forms that M. Weber distinguishes (domination, charismatic type and rational domination) are analyzed. The internal mechanisms of the transformation of one form of domination into another are revealed. The use of the "ideal types" methodology of M. Weber in modern concepts of biopolitics is considered. The article considers three aspects of modern biopolitics (theoretical, practical and organizational) and their features.
