Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Political geography in general and military geography in particular have paid little attention to the creation ot security landscapes. Distinctive elements ol the security landscape are identified at the macro-, the meso- and the microscales and applied to the development ot Israel’s security landscape since 1948, particularly in the Golan Heights and the Negev. The landscape intensities Irom the core toward the periphery, expands with technological advances, and changes most at the micro-level.
