L’historien canadien Robert Nelson parlera de Max Sering, Nationalökonom, qui a été formé par les Kathedersozialisten de Strasbourg (Lujo Brentano, Harry Breslau…) avant de devenir un des protagonistes d’une agriculture américaine adaptée aux confins de l’Est, sur l’arrière-plan du morcellement excessif des exploitations alsaciennes.
