Illustrated with pioneering maps and country analyses by a network
of researchers from across the Mediterranean, this book takes a
territorial approach as a way toward a shared vision for a truly
integrated Euro-Mediterranean region. At a time when the region is
undergoing rapid change, the main goal of the book is to challenge
misconceptions with common geographic data, on issues such as
transport, energy, agriculture and water. The book suggests avenues
for Europe to regain a part of the influence it has lost on its
Mediterranean neighbourhood and policies common to Europe and its
southern neighbours. The wide range of geographic country analyses,
from Morocco to Turkey and including the occupied Palestinian
territory and Jordan, are complemented with new maps at the scale
of the wider Euro-Mediterranean region. The contributions contend
that cross-border cooperation, common transport networks and shared
environmental management can foster partnership when diplomatic
relations are stalling. The Gibraltar case study shows that while
competition is rising between the two sides of the strait their
potential complementarity is also very high. The book calls for a
Euro-Mediterranean local data collaborative platform to drive a
common 'Neighbourhoods Territorial Agenda' for North-South shared
vision and action. This timely and enlightening book is essential
reading for those studying regional, European, Mediterranean and
Arab world issues. It will appeal to policymakers and actors
involved in cross-border cooperation, territorial development,
environment, cultural knowledge and networking. Contributors
