"Urban Reform" is a book category that gathers works—fiction and nonfiction—focused on efforts to change cities and the lives of the people who live in them. It centers on topics like housing and zoning, transportation and infrastructure, public space and design, urban policy and politics, gentrification and displacement, community organizing, and environmental resilience. Stories and analyses in this category often examine power, equity, and the clash between expert-led planning and grassroots activism, portraying planners, politicians, developers, organizers, and longtime residents as key characters. Tone ranges from investigative and policy-driven to literary and speculative, and formats include memoirs, case studies, manifestos, city histories, and novels that dramatize reform struggles. Overall, Urban Reform books explore how cities can be reshaped—practically and ethically—to be more livable, just, and sustainable.
