ABSTRACT
As we have seen, since the Six Day War numerous development and settlement activities have been carried out in Judea-Samaria that have changed the structure of the region considerably. Many settlements have been established in the Jordan valley, and in the Judean and Samarian hills, the Etzion bloc has been enlarged, new roads paved, the municipal area of Jerusalem expanded, and residential neighbourhoods have proliferated. Many of these development activities have been accomplished through separate planning and administrative bodies with no reciprocal relations between them, to the point where the region seems to lack the overall regional planning approach that would make it possible to take advantage of the situation already obtaining in the field for the benefit of the two peoples living there.
