Produktbeschreibung

"With a focus on minority communities in the Middle East, Laura Robson examines the vital issues of ethnic borders and population exchanges. This is an original and clearly written work of important historical scholarship."--Wm. Roger Louis, University of Texas "This book focuses on the interwar period when those in charge of the mandated states of the Middle East dealt with the newly arrived non-Arab refugees in their midst as essentially unassimilable groups and--except for Britain's encouragement of Jewish migration to Palestine--thought up various impractical schemes to resettle them elsewhere. Dr. Robson's scholarship is of a high order and brings together a number of topics not generally found in each other's company. Her work in the League of Nations' archives has been especially fruitful."--Peter Sluglett, Middle East Institute, National University of Singapore
