I've read and enjoyed a few of these books, and there are a couple I want to read.

Pretty interesting developments in France, eh?

thanks for your reply. my top three cli-fi are Parable of the Talents/ Sower duology by Octavia Butler, Ministry of the Future, KS Robinson, and Kraken Calling by Aric McBay. All exceedingly believable and valuable for pushing the envelope of my own thinking about preparedness.

Another category would be NGO/govt thinktank reports: eg New Shape Prize, Global Challenges Foundation, Stimson Foundation, RealGreenNewDeal. Jacob Nordangard, Whitney Webb, Coreydigs.com, Fadi Lama, Michael Hudson to name a few. Ah, also US military public documents on global risks. @justinmcaffee

Excellent list, thank you! Some you may consider adding are The Dawn of Everything (Graeber and Wendgrew), A Paradise Built in Hell (Solnit), and for fiction The Ministry of the Future (Robinson).

you missed a major handbook of resistance history, theory and practice by Aric Mcbay called Full

Spectrum Resistance. and a useful category would be resistance fiction/sci-fi.

It was there under III. I own a copy of the two volume set myself. Good call on the categories. We’ll keep adjusting it.
