Hello, I’m specifically looking for non-fiction recs. I studied political science in university and have read classics like Machiavelli’s the prince, Plato’s republic, and the Leviathan. I’m interested in international relations, not only how countries relate to each other but just understanding how different governments work in different countries. I’m also interested in how history and politics relate. Any recs would be appreciated.
