In a multi-layered narrative crafted from letters and legal documents in Arabic and an accompanying supply of Judeo-Arabic narratives, the book portrays how religiously subordinated individuals strove to pursue their interests without forgoing the protection of the dominant majority. At once shedding new light on both Jewish history and on rural Yemeni-Muslim history, the work provides a rare, pre-republican (pre-1962) portrait of rural life in Lower Yemen while positioning the Jewish community in the context of hitherto little-understood social, legal, economic and political systems. 410 0$aSocial, Economic and Political Studies of the Middle East and Asia ;$v96. 517 3 $aA Study in Protection and Restraint, 1918-1949 606 $aDhimmis (Islamic law)$zYemen, South 606 $aJewish-Arab relations$xHistory$y1917-1948 606 $aJews$xLegal status, laws, etc$zYemen, South 606 $aJews$zYemen, South$xSocial conditions$y20th century 607 $aYemen, South$xEthnic relations 615 0$aDhimmis (Islamic law) 615 0$aJewish-Arab relations$xHistory 615 0$aJews$xLegal status, laws, etc. 615 0$aJews$xSocial conditions 676 $a305.892/4053/09041 700 $aHollander$b Isaac$01515435 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784194403321 996 $aJews and Muslims in Lower Yemen$93751144 997 $aUNINA
