Yemen

Publisher: Oxford, England : Clio Press
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 384
Book Description
Yemen is both the least-known state in the Arabian Peninsula, and the one with the longest continuous history. Several vibrant civilizations flourished in South Arabia in the millennium before the arrival of Islam in 632 AD, and under the Rasulid dynasty (1229-1454), there developed an intellectual, commercial and artistic culture of considerable splendour. The country was occupied at various times by the Portuguese, the Ottomans and the British. When independence came in the 1960s, two separate states emerged; the Yemen Arab Republic in the North, and the (Marxist) People's Democratic Republic of Yemen in the South. Union was achieved in 1990, and despite the civil war of 1994, the wealth generated by the recent discovery of oil and the democratic elections of 1997 promise the new Republic of Yemen a positive future. This edition has been thoroughly revised to take account of recent scholarship.

Slavery, Agriculture, and Malaria in the Arabian Peninsula
Author: Benjamin Reilly
Publisher: Ohio University Press
ISBN: 0821445405
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 294
Book Description
In Slavery, Agriculture, and Malaria in the Arabian Peninsula, Benjamin Reilly illuminates a previously unstudied phenomenon: the large-scale employment of people of African ancestry as slaves in agricultural oases within the Arabian Peninsula. The key to understanding this unusual system, Reilly argues, is the prevalence of malaria within Arabian Peninsula oases and drainage basins, which rendered agricultural lands in Arabia extremely unhealthy for people without genetic or acquired resistance to malarial fevers. In this way, Arabian slave agriculture had unexpected similarities to slavery as practiced in the Caribbean and Brazil. This book synthesizes for the first time a body of historical and ethnographic data about slave-based agriculture in the Arabian Peninsula. Reilly uses an innovative methodology to analyze the limited historical record and a multidisciplinary approach to complicate our understandings of the nature of work in an area that is popularly thought of solely as desert. This work makes significant contributions both to the global literature on slavery and to the environmental history of the Middle East—an area that has thus far received little attention from scholars.
