When in 1923 Rudolf Steiner assumed the presidency of the General Anthroposophical Society, he broke with the tradition that initiates did not connect themselves with earthly organisations. In doing so, Rudolf Steiner did not invalidate the purpose of that tradition, nor did he compromise himself.

Instead, he gave the relationship between esoteric and exoteric life a new, modern meaning. Inevitably, controversy and confusion have gathered about this event - the deed of Rudolf Steiner. Resolving the many issues that so complicated a karmic circumstance entails is difficult enough, of course, but in this case the problem has been aggravated by the laming or lack of development of an integral, but little recognised aspect of Steiner's deed - its economic counterpart. This publication draws attention to this crucial element. It is a personal view, but one that has been many years in gestation and thus can be expressed without sentiment or insistence. A testament to be shared.
