Description
Traces the historical rationalizations of anti-Semitism to the fact that, in the centuries preceding the domination of industrial capitalism, Jews emerged as a ?people-class? of merchants, moneylenders, and traders. Leon explains why the propertied rulers incite renewed Jew-hatred in the epoch of capitalism?s decline. "As if his exemplary life wasn't enough, with The Jewish Question Abram Leon left us a piece of work that is an honor to his intellect and honesty. I can't emphasize how much I learned and enjoyed reading it." ?Rene Gonzalez Sehwerert, Dec. 1, 2005 (Rene Gonzalez Sehwerert is one of the ?Cuban Five??revolutionists from Cuba jailed in the U.S. on frameup charges of ?espionage.?)
Books by Abram Leon:
- The Jewish Question (1970)
