In addition to Leon's thorough documentation of the predominance of
petty bourgeois class-locations of the Jewish masses and its historical
causes, Nathan Weinstock provides abstracts invaluable as references on
this issue in the Introduction to Leon's The Jewish Question: A Marxist
Interpretation. Karl Kantsky, in a careful study of the Jewish ques-
tion, dwells on the pioneering role the Jewish traders played in the
economic history, remarking that other people, too, such as the Scots
in 17th and 18th century England, had been agents of monetary economy.
Similarly, Otto Bauer has pointed out that Jews had been the pioneers
of money economy. A substantiation of the people-class concept can be
found in the work of an Israeli historian, Michael Avi-Yonah, who has
described the gradual process of assimilation of Palestine Jewry in the
second century A.D., except for the small minority engaging in trade
and allied occupations. On the whole, the Jewish artisan class natur-
ally belonged to the Jewish middle-layers, situated between the aris-
tocracy and the laboring classes. Moreover, the majority of small entre-
preneurs selling their wares to the customers in their own booths on
credit were in a condition similar to that of the money lenders. (For
more detail, see Weinstock, Introduction to Leon, op. cit., pp. 27-63.)
