[Anonymous No.17332456]

there's actually a lot of good stuff at a crazy discount, but you have to just search for stuff, the browsing by category doesn't seem to show everything

[Anonymous No.17332554]

>>17332466
Unfabling The East, Rise and Fall of American Growth, Battle of Bretton-Woods, bunch of lectures by Jung, basically you have to search by some really generic catch-all like history or finance or whatever.

i bought some of the stuff that i found especially relevant, and downloaded everything that was only 'kinda interesting'.
Just for the record, a lot of their stuff is easily available in PDF on libgen

>>17332236
card only, unfortunately

>>17332422
because technocracy isn't a real ideology, it's more of a descriptor of what some governments aspire towards. advisory positions in most democracies are 'technocratic' in a sense but the idea of 'rule of the knowledgeable' leans oligarchic by nature imo

>>17332643
yeah they're expensive as hell to print, so it is what it is. i'm usually more willing to blow money on art books after i've had them in hand, because i can tell if the binding/printing is really good enough to make it feel worth it
