Through a review of traditional Conflict Analysis and Resolution theory, and more modern Environmental and Interfaith Peace Building theory, it is communicated that the peace building programs in the Jordan River basin operate on a plane of theoretical soundness which is respective of human needs and attempts to alleviate relative deprivation and access to resources in the area.
