In the sixteen essays in this volume, scholars from three continents explore dispassionately various facets of the Jewish presence in the Hungarian economy over a span of two centuries. (Two of the articles deal with Vienna which had quite a sizeable contingent of Hungarian Jews.) The topics range from "pure" economic history dealing with entrepreneurship and occupational structure, to related fields such as demography, urbanization and nutrition. Several studies discuss the interaction of both religion and politics with economy. And finally, a section is devoted to a debate on the nature of Jewish economic behavior. These studies are dedicated to Prof. Moshe Carmilly-Weinberger on the occasion of his eightieth birthday.
