  Abstract:  The First World War saw an enthusiastic and active participation of many German Jews who perceived this historical event as a unique opportunity for complete social integration and political union with their German nation. One of the most famous voices in the German Jewish tradition of the First World War was that of Martin Buber, whose fervid rethinking of Judaism can be defined as the intellectual product of his historical and existential experience. The main focus of this study is an analysis of Buber’s response to Nietzsche’s nihilism in the form of a renewed religious consciousness which has gained great popularity among Buber’s readers.

Keywords: crisis, finance, spillover effects, culture, war, Martin Buber.
