Regional Planning Approaches in Jordan
Auther : Abdullah Abu-Ayyash
This paper investigates regional planning in Jordan, which has recently become an integral part of the five-year development plan for this country. The paper explores five aspects of this topic. The first section evaluates regional planning experiences since the inception of the concept in the late 1960s. This is followed by a discussion of the approaches and goals of regional planning within spatial context. The third section includes indicators of regional inequalities and imbalances, showing the severity of social and economic disparities between the different regions. The organizational structure of the regions and sub-regions with their institutional framework is then described, and the last section identifies and discusses the missing components in present regional plans.
