THE ECONOMIC HISTORY OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE

Jacques ATTALI
Foreword by Alan DERSHOWITZ


In this book the author tackles the facts and the lies of the history of the relationship between the Jewish people, money and the world at large.

Herein lies the history of the relationship between the Jewish people, money and the world at large. The author is well aware of the subversive nature of this subject. It is a topic that has unleashed so many controversies and brought about so many massacres as to have become a veritable taboo, a topic that must not be evoked under any circumstance for fear of provoking some age-old catastrophe. Today, no one dares write on this topic, as if centuries of study have served no purpose other than to fuel book burning. It remains nevertheless in the best interest of modern mankind to understand how those who discovered monotheism also founded the ethics of capitalism, how some became its primary brokers and leading bankers, while others its most unrelenting enemy. Finally, it seems essential that the Jewish people themselves face a part of their history that they may not care for, but of which they have every reason to be proud.
