Book Synopsis Indian Ocean Migrants and State Formation in Hadhramaut by : Ulrike Freitag
Book excerpt: This history of Hadhramaut in the 19th and 20th centuries shows the fascinating influence of diasporic merchants and scholars in the Indian Ocean on the evolution of their tribal homeland. It argues that international networks contributed to the formation of a modernity that was adapted to local conditions.
