Paperback. Condizione: New. En el año 70 d. C., los judíos eran en su mayor parte campesinos analfabetos que habitaban en la tierra de Israel y Mesopotamia. En 1492 se habían convertido en una pequeña comunidad instruida y desperdigada por una miríada de centros urbanos, desde Sevilla a Mangalore, que se dedicaba a oficios artesanales, al comercio, al préstamo de dinero y a la medicina. ¿Cuál fue la causa de esta transformación radical? Este libro ofrece una nueva respuesta a esta pregunta, analizando bajo un prisma económico los hechos fundamentales que jalonan quince siglos formativos de historia del pueblo judío.Maristella Botticini y Zvi Eckstein demuestran que, contrariamente a lo que afirman las explicaciones formuladas hasta la fecha, esta transformación no fue consecuencia de las persecuciones ni de las restricciones legales, sino de los cambios que experimentó el propio judaísmo a partir de 70 d.C. Sobre todo, el surgimiento de una nueva norma que obligaba a todo varón judío a leer y estudiar la Torá y a mandar a sus hijos varones a la escuela. A lo largo de los seis siglos siguientes, aquellos judíos que encontraban demasiado rigurosas las normas de su religión se convirtieron a otras confesiones, lo que provocó una reducción de la comunidad judía mundial. Más adelante, cuando la urbanización y la expansión comercial de los recién fundados califatos musulmanes impulsaron la demanda de aquellas profesiones que dependían de una cierta formación intelectual, los judíos se encontraron con la inmensa ventaja de ser un pueblo instruido en un mundo donde el analfabetismo era prácticamente universal. De ahí en adelante, casi todos los judíos se especializarían en oficios artesanales y actividades comerciales, y muchos de ellos empezarían a emigrar en pos de oportunidades empresariales, creando con ello una diáspora verdaderamente mundial. …

very good dust-jacket, very good dark blue cloth, slight wear. BOTTICINI, MARISTELLA / ECKSTEIN, ZVI. The chosen few: how education shaped Jewish history, 70-1492. Princeton: University Press, 2012, 2d printing number line ending in 2, xvii, 323pp., . Series: Princeton economic history of the Western world In 70 CE, the Jews were an agrarian and illiterate people living mostly in the Land of Israel and Mesopotamia. By 1492 the Jewish people had become a small group of literate urbanites specializing in crafts, trade, moneylending, and medicine in hundreds of places across the Old World, from Seville to Mangalore. What caused this radical change? "The Chosen Few" presents a new answer to this question by applying the lens of economic analysis to the key facts of fifteen formative centuries of Jewish history., Maristella Botticini and Zvi Eckstein show that, contrary to previous explanations, this transformation was driven not by anti-Jewish persecution and legal restrictions, but rather by changes within Judaism itself after 70 CE--most importantly, the rise of a new norm that required every Jewish male to read and study the Torah and to send his sons to school. Over the next six centuries, those Jews who found the norms of Judaism too costly to obey converted to other religions, making world Jewry shrink. Later, when urbanization and commercial expansion in the newly established Muslim Caliphates increased the demand for occupations in which literacy was an advantage, the Jews found themselves literate in a world of almost universal illiteracy. From then forward, almost all Jews entered crafts and trade, and many of them began moving in search of business opportunities, creating a worldwide Diaspora in the process., The Chosen few offers a powerful new explanation of one of the most significant transformations in Jewish history while also providing fresh insights to the growing debate about the social and economic impact of religion.
