Max Weber on Society - Dictionary of Arguments

Habermas III 356
Community/Society/Law/Weber/Habermas: as far as the normative agreement is based on tradition, Weber speaks of conventional community action.
>Convention
, >Tradition, >Cultural transmission.
To the extent that this is replaced by success-oriented, procedural rational oriented action, the problem arises as to how these new scopes can in turn be legitimately, i.e. normatively bindingly ordered. Rational social action takes the place of conventional community action.(1)
>Purpose rationality, >Rationality, >Rationality of action.
