I did finish all of these in about four weeks and regretted none. I’ve already used Reactionary Modernism and Minds Make Societies in letters, and I’ve been mulling over the others extensively as well. At the same time, I was also filling in some complements: Karl Polanyi’s The Great Transformation, Cristina Lafont’s Democracy Without Shortcuts, Sperber’s Explaining Culture, and Danielle Allen’s Justice by Means of Democracy are particularly on my mind, among those.

It’s not easy getting up to speed on all this, but I’m getting great recommendations, so thank you all.
