About the author

Werner Sombart was a German economist and sociologist, the head of the “Youngest Historical School” and one of the leading Continental European social scientists during the first quarter of the 20th century. Sombart's later writings reflect his personal philsophy and the anti-Semitism of the Nazi regime. In one of his last publications, A New Social Philosophy (1934), Sombart analyzed social problems “from the point of view of the national socialist [Nazi] way of thinking.”

Reviews

[Friedrich Mencken · Rating 1 out of 5]

A good book if you find the history of European socialist movements in the late 1800 to 1905 interesting, but then again who does?
