Werner Sombart, a leading member of the last generation of the German Historical School, publishes a treatise on the evils of capitalism, which he ascribes to the Jews.

In The Jews and Modern Capitalism, he traces capitalist acquisitiveness and success to the spread and rise of Jews in Central and Northern Europe—directly contradicting Weber's famous thesis relating it to Protestantism.

Jews and liberals find it crudely anti-Semitic, anti-Semites and conservatives consider it too pro-Semitic, and scholars find its sources (if given) questionable and without research merit.
