Abstract:	"For a fee of thirty-four new Israeli Shekels one can enjoy an entire private car-ride along the 200 km of the Trans-Israel highway and witness the ever-increasing construction boom that turned the area from a frontier zone into a blooming real estate market. Built in the early 2000s, the new privately funded four-lane motorway presented the local driver with an uninterrupted drive in an average speed of 130 km per hour, bypassing the heavily crowded Tel Aviv metropolis all the way into the 3rd millennium. Driving along the highway, one might forget that it runs parallel to the official border between the State of Israel and the Palestinian West-Bank, the Green-Line, which was successfully blurred by the extensive development of Israeli settlements on both of its sides. Looking closely at the well-maintained landscape, the attentive driver might easily recognise shimmers of the West-Bank Separation Barrier that was built east of the official border and surrounds the Palestinian cities of the Occupied Territories; despite the efforts to hide it. The overt private highway and the covert state-constructed barrier constitute a mutually rewarding relationship, where the former contributes to the interests of the latter and vice versa. This book asks to understand the nature of this mutually rewarding relationship and how it shapes the local built environment"--
