Re: Best Books You\'ve Been Assigned to Read
Moon Sun and Witches: Gender Ideologies and Class in Inca and Colonial Peru. Irene Silverblatt.
The New Class: An Analysis of the Communist System. Milovan Djilas, disillusioned former higher up in, I believe, the Yugoslavian C.P.
Disposable People: New Slavery in the Global Economy. Kevin Bales. I think the title about says it all.
I also assigned myself ALL of Howard Zinn's writings while writing a thesis. A People' History of the United States is a must, but the other stuff is good too (see, The Politics of History).
Disposing of politics/history:
Dostoevsky- Poor Folk and The Brothers Karamazov.
