Answer to Question 1

that it is biased against older people, assuming they leave productive social roles and just sink into oblivion, while in reality they often exchange one set of roles for another set

Answer to Question 2

Three types of authority were identified by Max Weber: traditional, rational-legal, and charismatic. Traditional authority is based on custom. Monarchy is an example of traditional authority. Rational-legal authority is based on written rules. Modern constitutional democracies are an example of rational-legal authority. Charismatic authority is based on an individual's outstanding traits, which attract followers. The leadership of Joan of Arc would represent an example of charismatic authority.
