Max Weber believes that the instability of charismatic authority will inevitably lead to its forced transformation into a "conventional" form of authority, that is, traditional or bureaucratic rule. Similarly, he also noticed that in pure traditional domination, when the resistance to the dominator reaches a certain level, a "traditional revolution" will occur.

Therefore, Weber also hinted that society will gradually develop into a rational and legal authority structure and use a bureaucratic framework system. Although Weber's complicated works imply that the rationalization of this society is an inevitable trend, he himself carefully avoids the logic of evolution and teleology.

Weber put forward three forms of political rule and authority: charismatic rule (family and religion), traditional authority (patriarch, patriarchy and feudalism) and bureaucratic rule (modern law and state and bureaucracy). Weber believes that the relationship between rulers and ruled in history contains such elements.
