I have read very few books. I used to go about thinking I was deep for reading Animal Farm. I gained actual class consciousness this year, and mostly read theory. My fav. book used to be Agatha Christie's 'The Murder of Roger Ackroyd', it was a good one. What are the works of the former and latter two? I've heard about Anuradha Ghandy but not in detail.
For Walter Rodney, How Europe Underdeveloped Africa is perhaps his most well known work. I have read that, and Decolonial Marxism. Both are very wonderful and comprehensive.
Anuradha Ghandy's book on feminist trends has been immensely useful for me in navigating a lot of idealistic tendencies which exist. Her statements regarding anarchist organizing particularly is something I think of often. It is a very short book, so it may be easier to go through as well.
And Vijay Prishad writes constantly. He is in a lot of leftist outlets being interviewed, or writing articles The books I can think of from him are Washington's Bullets, and Red Star Over the Third World.
Sounds interesting. I searched but I couldn't find any quotes. Could you provide some pointers to where I could read these? Thanks.
In her book, 'Philosophical Trends in the Feminist Movement', she has a chapter dedicated to anarchism, if I remember correctly.
Thanks!
