Abstract
ning and operations. The conclusion also leaves the reader desiring an explicit theoretical framework explaining the relationship between infrastructure– governance dynamics and resilience or community empowerment for the most marginalized residents in the researched communities. These minor critiques notwithstanding, James Spencer’s book has a broader import beyond Southeast Asia. It will inspire planning and development practitioners involved in water infrastructure provision to identify, understand, support, and scale up local water infrastructural arrangements and innovations to meet provincial or national development objectives in fast-changing contexts, just as it will provoke planning scholars and students to use infrastructure’s community development potential to articulate normative propositions on what those development objectives ought to be.
