Page "Max Nordau" Paragraph 17
from
Wikipedia
Nordau's speeches to the World Zionist Congress reexamined the Jewish people, in particular stereotypes of the Jews.
He fought against the tradition of seeing the Jews as merchants or business people, arguing that most modern financial innovations such as insurance had been invented by gentiles.
He saw the Jewish people as having a unique gift for politics, a calling which they were unable to fulfil without their own nation-state.
Whereas Herzl favoured the idea of an elite forming policy, Nordau insisted the Congress have a democratic nature of some sort, calling for votes on key topics.
Nordau was also a staunch eugenicist.
