NAHAS, THE ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL POSITION OF THE EGYPTIAN FELLAH

Joseph F. Nahas. The Economic and Social Position of the Egyptian Fellah .

(Thesis.) Paris 1901

| Egyptian fellahs | | | Amateurish. Contains literature references. A description (all too brief) of the desperate poverty of the fellahs, who live in clay huts, without furniture, together with livestock , and toil from morning to night. Downtroddenness, ignorance—as in Russia. |

| | | His approach is extremely typical: liberal-Narodnik , just as in Russia during the years 1880-1900!! |

p. 38, note. Britain stifles industry!
