Im trying to learn as much as possible about politics, and consequently also the psychology behind them.

this is the ULTIMATE pseud book
>pseud
....so thats a no, then?
whatever you do, do not buy the short version. It reads like a buzzfeed article.
other books that might interest you
>influence, the psychology of persuasion (cialdini)
not political, just a list of psychological tricks used in sales and marketing
>the art of war (sun tzu)
>the prince (machiavelli)
two classics, can be reinterpreted for political strategies
it's just a meme here ignore him
You can get all you need to learn from "The Prince" paired with "rules for radicals. "
The Dictators Handbook - can be a bit pop-NF at times, but does a very good job at looking at politics and power in a scientific manner.
>and consequently also the psychology behind them
I've been sharing a few books for some time now, and will have to do it again. I wouldn't recommend Robert Greene book unless you do it for entertainment or inspiration.
- The righteous mind; about the moral foundations theory, it argues that the left and right have different moral foundations
- Our political nature; it argues that the far right is xenophobic and the far left xenophilic and proposes this is due to outbreeding and inbreeding strategies
- Predisposed; it argues that the left and right are partly heritable
All of these books discuss psychological research on politics
You can look these books up at scholar and see the citations if you are interested in research and papers
Two other books are: the dictators handbook which goes more into politics itself, and I can recommend "Big Gods" for a theory about the role of religion in politics and namely trust
You can also look into political philosophy if you want and Veeky Forums has charts for that stuff
Read The Dictator's Handbook, brilliant book
>The Dictators Handbook

>"rules for radicals. "
ive read the prince, but rules for radicals is the one im contemplating most strongly, next to 48 laws of power
>>influence, the psychology of persuasion (cialdini)
