I’ve finished Chenoweth and Stephan’s Why Civil Resistance Matters and three Very Short Introductions: to International Relations (Reus-Smit), to Sociology (Bruce), and to Indian Philosophy (Hamilton).

Have also finished another VSI: Howe’s Empire

A long day of listening: also Skinner’s VSI to Machiavelli.

How was VSI: Indian Philosophy? Pretty sure I have that in my pile of books to read.

I listened to it on Spotify - and I liked it a lot. Only real criticism is that it focused very heavily on Buddhism, but that’s not something I personally had a problem with. Would have been good to also see more political philosophy, such as Kautilya.
