This list critically examines the history of U.S. intervention in other countries, unpacking not only regime changes, but how it’s sold to the public. These books explore the political, economic, and strategic interests driving U.S. intervention, the manufactured consent that make it palatable at home, and the severe consequences and destabilization that inevitably follow abroad.

Ps. This is my first list so I’d appreciate any feedback & recommendations of reads to add

Intersectional books about anti-capitalism, economic injustice, and imagining better futures of interdependence and reciprocity

These are some of my favorites and books I want to read--nonfiction that reads like fiction or is otherwise compelling. If you're intimidated by books on history, science, memoir, or other subgenres in nonfiction, start here.

This list is dedicated for all the book recommended and mentioned by Louisa Munch - critical theorist. I follow her Instagram account almost from the very first videos. Louisa inspired me to organise better my political reading and she always gives some nice recommendations to inform yourself about the political landscape of today. I just wanted to have all the books in one place, plus the ones which I found on my own reading journey.

Unlearn the propaganda and stand for our communities.

Reading is political. Economics is political. Society is politics. You might ignore politics, but it will not ignore you.

History repeats, and most of us need an education.

Includes classics on American history & contemporary looks at the many -ism’s that consume us. Some microhistories are also thrown in. See them as case studies.

This list is by no means exhaustive. Feel free to comment other titles!

My personal recommendations for studying propaganda, from a political science and communications perspective. First lesson = marketing is also propaganda and other things that are also propaganda.

will mostly contain books about historical events and will span from the 20th to the 21st century. It will include many countries, not just the Western ones, so if possible, recommendations would be great!
