Both great books. I actually bought them from Amazon. Altho prefer buying directly now. Have you noticed the 'two-step' Amazon plays? (altho could be very different for US Amazon users): 1) Make available a 'controversial' book for about 4-6 months. 2) Ban the book from their available catalogue due to 'concerns' with 'hate', etc. Implicit premise/boardroom discussion: we know some people want this book so we will sell it to them because they will be the ones to notice when it is released, so sales will be decent-to-good. Then we will stop selling the book because it will 'offend' normies. So, if they do eventually notice a particular text's circulation we can say it is banned. A reduced selection of Antelope/Arktos/Imperium titles remain listed because Amazon likely want to keep some 'dissident'/sensible types on their platform. Very cheeky behaviour. Bezos is a tech Brahmin for a reason.

A must-read against liberalism is Robert E. Lane "The Loss of Happiness in Market Democracies" (2000). Published during the victory age of liberalism (1989-2001), it argues that the prerequisites of liberalism (freedom, autonomy and choice) does not make people happy, despite living in abundance. It resurrects the dichotomy of material versus metaphysical by denouncing consumerism as a substitute for what people crave most (companionship, love, friendship, etc.), that can't be bought. It explains in many way the ills of the modern world. I missed Ortega y Gasset in your list, especially the Revolt of the Masses (1929) and Mission of the University (1930).

Chimes with everything my mother, grandmother and older relatives used to say about the 50s and 60s. They had economic security AND community. Even in the 80s I remember trailing round after them stopping every 5 minutes to talk to someone. Your uncles had stories about places, characters, this or that works, this or that street. I don't think they could believe it had all gone

As well as some history books that debunk leftist historical narratives such as "the history of jihad from Muhammad isis" by Robert Spencer "the myth of Andalusian Paradise" by Dario Fernandez Morera. As well as "the scythian empire" by Christopher l beckwith which goes into great detail how the scythians AKA Aryans conquered, ruled and civilized much of the ancient world

22:19 This is remarkably close to my own understanding of the phenomenology of the cultural shift to increasing amounts of liberalism. Effectively; Traditions exist as a means of limiting negative behaviors and traits that people could potentially do that will be individually and collectively deliterious. Civilization is the moderation of the worse aspects of humanity. So we grew up acclimated and entrenched in tradition for centuries. As productive capacity grows, the ability for the group to be able to absorb these impacts increases as well to the point that certain behaviors are no longer seen as existential threats to the group. This permits more free social behaviors. This means the control and moderation of people decreases and the guidance of the people fall entirely on socialization and inculcated social norms. With nothing mandating and holding these norms together more people are able and willing to go against these tradtions. This gets to the point that the liberal presumes better aspects of the human condition. This means at the liberal will assume that traditions are at best, pointless and random. Worse, the liberal will attribute the deteriotrating society and human behavior to the traditions themself. Thus the solition to liberal 'freedom' problems becomes more liberalism. More 'freedom.' So the Victorian era was coasting on the remnant cultural strength of the a Feudal and Renaissance periods, while the society also has access to more resources to exercise these traditions.

The flower is a result of a process rooted in past initial conditions and stability. Once the flower blooms, the liberal thinks they can cut it off the plant and email alive as if still connected. The flower isn't the plant, it's a side effect of success. The flower is also necessary for the plant to continue into the future. To sever the flower is to spend beauty on hedonism instead of reproduction. This is the case for every institution in the west: economic, social, love, family, and on and on. This is the spectacular failure of the liberal (and libertarian) project. Everyone still in possession of a faculty for critical thinking knows this.

List sounds like my kind of guy: what actually happened not what the propagandists say happened. He was one of the forefathers of the Historical school which, I'm sorry Libertarians, was what came before the Austrian school. The Austrian school was so-called precisely because those Austrian thinkers consciously ignored the German Historical school. At the end of the day they were just aristocrats out to hold onto to their gibs Re AA's comments about deindustrialised areas not recovering from "creative destruction", the same applies with cuts to public sector organisations - the private sector doesn't flood into fill the gap. All that's happened is the money once spent by those public sector workers and organisations in the private sector has disappeared thus shrinking demand for private goods. If libertarians can't face up to that, all they're admitting is they don't care about private enterprise, they just hate the public sector

This is an exhaustive and perceptively overwhelming selection especially for me who has ADHD. i have always liked your content AA but is there any hope in gaining a greater understanding of the world that my goals are easier achieved after going through this list? Also, i was checking out Thomas Carlyle because i was curious on how exactly he knew that Haiti would continue to be a violent state and from the little I saw, it seems he is pro- black slavery. it makes me hesitant to read his works. pro-slavery works can be hard for me to read as a black man, but I will still be willing to read and absorb if there exists knowledge that helps one make better sense of the world within it.

Aside from Parvini's book of course (which I have read) we do not all need to spend 100s of Currency Units on each of these books when they are also available in many cases at local libraries. If this is something anyone is interested in pursuing let me know in this thread and I will discuss my idea.

Witness by Whittaker Chambers, A conflict of visions, The abolition of man, Back door to war, The Empty Wagon and The Master and his emissary are all great books that could have made this list; also there could be a place for fiction works, such as The Leopard, Dostoyevski's The demons, Brave New World or A clockwork orange; lastly, a largely forgotten great author of both fiction and essays is Ernesto Sabato
