Abstract

The  origins  of  the  problem  “Mennonite  entrepreneurship  and nationalism”  were  laid  by  the  state  privilege  practice  at  the  stage  of colonization. Successful entrepreneur practice of the Mennonites made it an object for nationalism criticism. Entrepreneurship supported by the state had  favourable  opportunities  for  development.  With  the  outbreak  of  the First World War ethnic industry was influenced by Liquidation Legislation. Mennonite human rights campaign helped to stop the rate of legislation implementation and provide enterprises with orders.
