Timely thread, as I was just looking for Leftist lit these past few days. I'm halfway through Zinn's History and put it on pause to read Mark Fisher's Capitalist Realism after seeing a mention of hauntology in another thread (I think in the Disco Elysium thread?). Fisher's work was a good dive back into critical theory, even in spite of me only having a cursory knowledge of the people/concepts he names throughout the book.

I can't decide if I want to tackle the historical roots (i.e., Hobsbawm's four-parter) or more contemporary works after I get through History.

I used to have a book covering the evolution of theory/debates/key ideas in geography from a graduate course years ago that proved to be a good reference when reading works that mention unfamiliar concepts/debates/people. The book has since been lost to the postal service, but does anyone know of a similar-but-more-generalized resource?
