The Gift of Debt: Agnon's Economics of Money, God and the Human Other

Money, gifts, and debts play a crucial role in Agnon’s first novella, Vehaya he’akov lemishor (And the Crooked Shall Be Made Straight; 1912), which tells the story of the bankruptcy of middle-class shopkeepers Menasheh Ḥayim and his wife Kreindel Tcharni in mid–nineteenth-century Galicia. Following Nietzsche’s claim of the internalization of debt as the origin of monotheist religion, I read Agnon’s novella as the literary construction of an analogy between capitalism and religious faith as two economic systems of debt and credit, destined for crisis. Framed this way, Menasheh Ḥayim’s subsequent journey as a beggar brings up questions of sin, responsibility, and the hierarchy of monetary and divine debts. Whereas Menasheh Ḥayim’s life is constructed via debts to external authorities, his death exchanged for his wife’s life underscores that the debt to the human other functions in Agnon’s novella as a gift which bypasses the economy of debt and credit. Read this way, Menasheh Ḥayim’s death for an other against the demands of an external authority becomes a critique of both the traditional and modern Jewish subject, constituted through debt to religion or its modern substitutes such as capitalism or Zionism.

The Economics of Money and Banking: A Theoretical and Empirical Study of Islamic Interest-Free Banking

Twenty years after the Dubai Islamic Bank and the Islamic Development Bank, Jeddah, were launched as modern banking institutions working on an interest-free basis, a stock taking is due. The book under review though written as a Ph. D. thesis at Stockholm University, Department of Business Administration, five years ago, is the best so far for this purpose. It is by a sympathetic insider, one who knows English, Arabic being his mother tongue, and has good access to the sources: documents, institutions and personalities involved. And he has put this access to good use. A list of thirteen persons, all from Egypt, and another of the thirteen institutions visited including three outside Egypt (in Sweden, Denmark and Washington) is given on pages 262-263. The 10 page questionnaire used to collect information from 20 banks (17 responded, eventually) is also given (pp. 251-260). The responding banks belonged to Bahrain, Bangladesh, Bahamas, Dubai, Cyprus, Denmark, Egypt, Guinea, Kuwait, Niger, Qatar, Senegal, Sudan, Switzerland, and Turkey. One Islamic commercial bank, the Faisal Islamic Bank of Egypt has been chosen for detailed study covering the period 1984-1988 (Chapter 9).
