>А почему нельзя быть одновременно и евреем и русским? Советский проект тем и был хорош,что снимал эти противоречия.
Есть такое удивительное явление. Охватывает примерно 10% российского еврейства. Оказывается можно. Но речь о 90%. Значение национальности и религии в Союзе сильно недооценивалось. И Вебер был запрещен. А зря.
"5. For instance, in 1895 in Baden there was taxable capital available for the tax on returns from capital:
Per 1,000 Protestants ______ 954,000 marks
Per 1,000 Catholics ______ 589,000 marks
It is true that the Jews, with over four millions per 1,000, were far ahead of the rest. "
"But further, and especially important: it may be, as has been claimed, that the greater participation of Protestants in the positions of ownership and management in modern economic life may to-day be understood, in part at least, simply as a result of the greater material wealth they have inherited. But there are certain other phenomena which cannot be explained in the same way. Thus, to mention only a few facts: there is a great difference discoverable in Baden, in Bavaria, in Hungary, in the type of higher education which Catholic parents, as opposed to Protestant, give their children. That the percentage of Catholics among the students and graduates of higher educational institutions in general lags behind their proportion of the total population, 8 may, to be sure, be largely explicable in terms of inherited differences of wealth. But among the Catholic graduates themselves the percentage of those graduating from the institutions preparing, in particular, for technical studies and industrial and commercial occupations, but in general from those preparing for middle-class business life, lags still farther behind the percentage of Protestants. 9 On the other hand, Catholics prefer the sort of training which the humanistic Gymnasium affords. That is a circumstance to which the above explanation does not apply, but which, on the contrary, is one reason why so few Catholics are engaged in capitalistic enterprise.

The population of Baden was composed in 1895 as follows:
Protestants, 37.0 per cent.; Catholics, 61.3 per cent.; Jewish, 1.5 per cent. The students of schools beyond the compulsory public school stage were, however, divided as follows (Offenbacher, p. 16):
(In the Gymnasium the main emphasis is on the classics. In the Realgymnasium Greek is dropped and Latin reduced in favour of modern languages, mathematics and science. The Realschule and Oberrealtschule are similar to the latter except that Latin is dropped entirely in favour of modern languages.

Протестанты очевидно занимают промежуточное положение между евреями и традиционным обществом - католиками. Ничего удивительного что "реформацию России" затеяли и ведут евреи (чубайс, немцов, бойко, березовский, гусинский...) и немногочисленные в наших краях протестанты - немцы (кох, греф...). Любопытно взглянуть на списки членов правительства.
