It seems plausible. I've never come across an article about non-Western typography (quite possibly because I can't read anything other than English).

Arabic typography can be pretty interesting. (Cyrillic, too, but that's just a `normal' alphabet.)

German Fraktur used to have lots of ligatures, and eg differently shaped s depending on context.
