Manifesto for the Abolition of Enslavement to Interest on Money by Gottfried Feder Kindle Edition

by Gottfried Feder (Author), Hadding Scott (Translator) Format: Kindle Edition
4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars 67 ratings
See all formats and editions
Originally published in 1919, this new translation of one of the most important historical economic manuscripts proposes some revolutionary changes to the German economy that are also applicable to any nation today. Gottfried Feder was a key founder of the German Nazi Party and the economic mentor of Adolf Hitler.

In his Manifesto, Gottfried Feder goes after Mammonism and interest-slavery while proposing new ideas and solutions to common economic woes, especially problems affecting Germany at the time.

Published without the typical anti-German footnotes found in many translated Nazi documents (especially as seen in Mein Kampf), this Manifesto is must-read for any student of either history or economics!

    5.0 out of 5 stars The book that could change the world.
    Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2014

    This is the economic theory that transformed Germany in the 30s. Gottfried Feder attacks the banking system of the Western world, which is why his book is suppressed.

    The core of it is ending usury by bringing the privately owned banking system that controls the Western world under public supervision. Interest ought not to be charged for socially necessary projects, such as building homes for people, and factories to create work.

    Usury, living off interest charged on loans of money, contravenes the canons of all the main religions of the world. It divides and destroys communities by creating vast differences of wealth. Usurers grow wealthy at great speed, without creating anything of value, and thereby devalue the amounts of money earned by people who do the useful work of making things or performing services.

    Walton of Walmart owns 90 blllion dollars, as much as is owned by the lower earning half of US population - about 130 million people. Unless the world heeds the ancient prohibition against usury, it will destroy itself. We are seeing the warning signs already.

    This books shows why the banks must be controlled.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Important Message for Our Times as Well
    Reviewed in the United States on March 5, 2013
    Verified Purchase
    This is an important read for students of history and economics. This book is not a dry textbook of Feder's proposed economic theory. It appears to be meant as a concise, readable document to be used as a tool to educate post WWI Germans that there is an alternative to the economy that was thrusted on them; one that was not based on interest. The book also effectively unmasks the "global capitalists" or "Mammonists" that posed a threat to Germany (and world) whose sole goal for living is to "pile money on top of money."

    On balance, I find Feder's views quite convincing. Feder's program was more or less put into practice when Chancellor Hitler came to power. Further it proved highly successful as Germany pulled out of the depths of depression within a few years (Great Britain and United States remained in economic depression/recession until WWII pulled them out.) Since WWII, very little has been discussed about this success. Most historians I find cast a biased dark light on this period and make unsupported claims that Germany's economic rebound was attributed mostly to militarization (untrue).

    I think Feder's theory in whole/part may be put in practice today. Particularly, given the current global financial debacle and unfathomable concentration wealth is the "stuff" he warned his readers nearly 100 years ago. I think it is well worth the intellectual exercise by our politicians, academics, and business leaders to determine the viability of Feder's approach. That said, I believe that for this plan to truly work a nation's citizenry must be willing to act as community and its leaders must be honest and interested in doing what's best for their constituents. Working against all this are the same Mammonists Feder spoke of back in 1919.

    Many thanks to the translator for taking the time and effort to bring this important book to light.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Loan Interest Makes the World Another Year Older and Deeper in Debt.
    Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2016
    Verified Purchase
    United States and many other countries are enslaved to banks and forced to pay interest on a loan in addition to repaying the loan amount. This bank in United States is the Federal Reserve Bank which prints all our money then charges an additional interest to use the money. Earlier our money was backed by the gold owned by USA and deposited at Fort Knox, Kentucky. Then and as per the Constitution of USA the country had its own bank. Application of non-interest loans is well described and illustrated for Germany within Manifesto...; but as USA is Germany had been led to enslavement for interest on interest. Such interest capital is then considered as collateral for another loan; thus resembling a pyramid scheme..

    Suggestion to whoever is selling this book: I might have been interested in reading it as part of exploring other points of view, but I draw the line at buying a book with a freaking swastika on the cover. If you want to sell more copies change the cover.

    5.0 out of 5 stars FRESH THINKING FROM AN OLD SOURCE.
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 11, 2014
    Verified Purchase
    The swastika on the cover will put a lot of people off. Please ignore it. I don't doubt that Adolf Hitler was influenced by listening to Feder. Read this Manifesto and you'll see why. Feder is as relevant today as much as he was in the 30s. Some of the translation in this version are a bit confusing. That doesn't stop you getting Feders thinking. I liked the way that Feder doesn't go into the depths of economics that others try to. He gives the reader a completely new way of thinking about money and economy. Perhaps. because of the Nazi connection people have overlooked him. That is a mistake. Wise man, wise words.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Truly Amazing!
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 17, 2013
    Verified Purchase
    Written a year before C.H. Douglas' own ground-breaking work, Feder issues a similar indictment of the unchanged usury-based money system. No convincing challenge has ever been made against this short masterpiece. It has, rather, been purposefully ignored by mainstream economists and politicians.

    We are less than a decade away for this book's hundredth anniversary and it still offers the most powerful attack on the modern world's unspoken acceptance of the Banker's destructive greed.

    Only a moral coward would shy away from this book because of the symbol on its cover (as out of place as it is, having been written in 1919).

    I commend the translators for making this so much more accessible.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Old Economics ideas that actually make sense!
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 28, 2020

    Very interesting points of view on economics, a lot of the ideas put forth in this book make a lot of sense, like propping up farmers with low interest loans and leasing them land etc, the people of world could do with trying their best getting out interest-and debt slavery and start becoming less reliant on countries like China, It’s not a book on white supremacy before anyone freaks over the Swastika, it a policy book and was written after WW1 in 1919 and was inspired by the atrocious management of the German economic system by drowning in mammonism at that time, kinda what’s happening now. You could however read one with a Sickle and Hammer or maybe some yellow stars on the front written by AOC and Bernie Sanders to discover how you’ll become poor, starving and subservient.

    Everyone should read this. It identifies the mechanism by which ordinary folk are robbed of the wealth that they create, while they are told that they do not work hard enough. The system worked extremely well for the NSDAP but it had to be killed off to save the bankster overlords from ruin. The more people who understand this, the more hope there is of humanity freeing itself from those who currently enslave and exploit it.
