have some of the dangerous nostalgia that afflicts many. They ask, “Is Tokyo doomed to be overtaken by the charmless sterility of corporate-led urbanism?” (p. 6). To be clear, I personally love the same Tokyo urbanism as the authors and also dislike the towers-on-podium design, but as urban planners we should remind ourselves that time and again, people hate new buildings until one day the same buildings are treasured historic landmarks. I highly recommend Emergent Tokyo: Designing the Spontaneous City for planners, architects, and urban professionals and only hope more cities can learn from Tokyo’s urbanism. I think that for most cities in the world, especially those in the Americas, Tokyo offers a more attainable urban design template than European cities do, with all of the social and environmental benefits.

Abstract Problem, research strategy, and findings Since the 1960s, African Americans have advocated to be systematically represented and addressed in planning education and practice. Despite burgeoning diversity work, it is unclear how specifically planning scholars have listened. Using a bibliometric and content analysis of the 21 oldest and most-cited planning journals, I analyzed the presence of race, diversity, and African Americans in 19,645 peer-reviewed research articles published between 1990 and 2020. Of these articles, only 4.8% focused explicitly on racial diversity in the abstracts, titles, keywords, or within their main text. Within these 944 U.S. diversity articles, nearly one-fourth (24.47%, n = 231) focused on African Americans. Overall, just 1.17% of the total U.S.-focused planning research in these journals focused on African Americans in this 3-decade period. Of these Black urbanism research articles, an evolving set of 34 themes and 105 story beats built on each other in six story arcs: a) Black housing, segregation, and gentrification; b) Black entrepreneurship and employment; c) Black ecology and environmentalism; d) Black arts, culture, and politics; and e) Black intersectionality. In addition to offering the first quantitative study on Black urbanism since 1990, two main analytical insights are that Black urbanism is a small literature, and specific contours exist to grow Black urbanism beyond its small canon in planning. Limitations to these findings include the small literature size, the lack of engagement with Black urbanism in a broader context than planning, technological barriers for mining older articles from archived databases, and understanding Black urbanism beyond a provincial focus on the United States. Takeaway for practice I offer two suggestions for planning scholars and practitioners: Avoid race-neutral diversity language when practicing in or publishing about Black contexts and recognize that a canon of Black urbanism exists.

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.

Abstract Problem, research strategy, and findings Here we describe a critical link between drought risk management and planning at the local level, the traditional lack of overlap between these fields, and current and future opportunities for addressing drought within local drought planning. We used a national survey of American Planning Association members (n = 537) to examine local planners’ perceptions of drought planning strategies and barriers, as well as their jurisdictions’ current and future drought-addressing plans. Explanatory factors included planner experience, communication with water managers and hazard planners, and factors characterizing the drought threat and capacity of their jurisdictions. We found planners most amenable to collaboration with water conservation and hazard mitigation planning processes, somewhat amenable toward integrating drought into local land use plans and day-to-day policies, and less interested in undertaking standalone drought plans. Current and future drought planning endeavors were largely driven by the threat of drought and less so by the resources found within planners’ jurisdictions. State plans and mandates played a role by requiring plans and/or providing capacity for the process. Future planning efforts may be limited by the barriers planners perceive. Funding, in terms of local tax resources, does not appear to restrict where drought planning has taken place to date. Planners’ perceptions of leadership, political will, data, and coordination across jurisdictions as barriers are lessened through experience, communication with water managers and/or hazard planners, and state mitigation plans. Takeaway for practice Preparing for future drought impacts may require communities to adopt mitigation actions through local planning processes. Local planners may prefer to address drought through water and hazard plans, but land use plans and standalone plans may also be important tools for effective mitigation where drought poses a threat. Some of the barriers that planners face may be reduced through experience and communication with water and hazard planners, as well as their states’ engagement in statewide drought mitigation plans.
