Can someone make an essential political philosophy reading list?
>>1103750
start with the greeks
The opium of the intellectuals
The open society and its enemies
>>1103750
The Epic of Gilgamesh, and continue from there until Atlas Shrugged
>>1103750
'Politics and Vision,' by Sheldon Wolin
Start with Plato
The Laws and the Republic are required reading
I'll add some more titles:
"Politics" by Aristotle
"The Revolt of the Masses" by Ortega y Gasset
"The Prince" by Machiavelli
"Second Treatise on Civil Government" by Locke
"The Social Contract" by Rousseau
"Politics as a vocation" by Max Weber
Cheers
