The grand design for peace: Planning transborder cooperation in the Red Sea

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The paper deals with the economic plans for peaceful cooperation and transborder cooperation among Israel, Jordan and Egypt. The paper begins by depiction of various types of transfrontier cooperation, presents the plans of Israel, Jordan and Egypt as presented at the Casablanca Summit for Middle East Cooperation and compares and analyzes the plans and the planning process for peace. Major findings are that some of the plans, even in the same country, pursue incompatible goals, and that the plans are too grandiose in scale and investment and are not likely to be implemented.
