Summary:

Weber's papers document his education at Yale University, his tenure at Candler School of Theology, and his activities as author and lecturer in the field of social ethics. Although there is little material directly related to Weber's published books (with the exception of files from the writing of Foreign Policy Is Your Business), the papers include an extensive series of research files. The research files reveal the areas of interest which informed Weber's teaching, his writing, and his lectures. These areas include Christian ethics, the relationship between church and state, violence and revolution, human rights, international politics, peace studies, and the Vietnam conflict. Also included are files related to conferences and other professional events in which Weber participated, as well as files from Weber's involvement with the Council on Religion and International Affairs from the 1960s through 1980s.
