Dear GEP-ED members,
I have a pretty interesting book that takes a comparative approach to urban planning and architecture, and its impact on land management, climate resilience, and decolonization. One of the core concepts guiding this book is the idea of capital drain under colonial rule, and the way it continues to shape contemporary development. Urban design is a little outside my area of familiarity, so I was hoping for a recommendation for a possible reviewer.
Thanks,
-Kemi
