About this Item
Dust jacket unclipped, loss to edges. Original cloth boards with bright gilt titling on spine. No ownershp marks. Maps. viii, 140 pages clean and tight. This book is a comprehensive study of minorities and minority-problems in Egypt, Palestine, Transjordan, Lebanon, Syria, and Iraq. A survey of the historical origins and development of the different racial, religious, and linguistic groups in these countries and in the area as a whole is followed by a more detailed study of the changes brought about in them since the beginning of the nineteenth century by political and social influences from the west. The author discusses the increase of minority nationalism during the recent war, and in his concluding chapters outlines what he considers to be the essential safeguards, international as well as national, for the minorities of the Arab world, and the machinery which must be established for their fulfilment.
