I'm knee deep in this book, "The Great Transformation" from Karl Polyani, which if such stuff like economics and poly sci interest you, is a great read:
http://www.amazon.com/Great-Tran…
Polyani wrote this back in the late 30's early 40's..it's his counter argument to both what was then current Keynsian economics AND the whole School of Chicago Hayek/Friedman "Free Market Uber Allies" thing we currently live under since going off the gold standard...It's a third way in a sense of thinking about political/economic structures..it's leftist without being in anyway marxist. It's pretty brilliant and commonsensically and hard to believe it was relegated to the backwaters of academia for 60 years.
He disliked Keynsian economics, didn't see marxism as an answer and really hated the Chicago guys with their crazy Utopian Free Market criticisms...it's both anti-marxist and anti-neocon. Really well worth picking up.
