Manufacturing consent same, also the Shock doctrice and Jakarta Method. Finding out how much of what I think I know is actually bs and finding out about the Chicago school of economics and neoliberalism. The George Monbiot Guardian article about neoliberalism and how it fit into my own lived exprerience from the 90s was a huge step towards understanding for me personally.
