Bhaskar Sunkara: The Socialist Manifesto (2019, Basic Books) 4 stars

More of a history than a manifesto

No rating

This book is a history of socialism, and a pretty accessible one. I was expecting more of a manifesto (because of the title...), but the final section is really the only thing approaching that. And even then, it's not really a manifesto in style or substance.

This is a great historical introduction to socialist projects, but if you're looking for a fiery defense of socialism you should look elsewhere.
