I'd like to focus this list on nonfiction political theory, philosophy, psychology, sociology, cultural studies, history, ethics, theology, etc. I'm interested in moderation in contrast to authoritarianism and extremism not just as political phenomena but also in their religious, cultural, and interpersonal forms. I like the idea of looking at the issues from a broad-ranging interdisciplinary perspective. You'll see I've put some books on here that deal with domestic abuse because I'm really interested in whether there are links between the psychology of abuse and authoritarian political behaviors. Similarly I'm interested in the potential of attachment theory for explaining political behaviors.
