Looking for a history, a textbook, or a do-it-yourself guide?

more history i suppose. Something to become more knowledgeable about the subjects because i'm interested, not to apply it to a job

Don't know whether he has books in English, but check out Jean Ziegler

Jonathan Safran Foer's Eating Animals.

It's pretty popular I know but it's well researched and includes sources (most of which are either government official or provided by said industries) for each opinion/statistic that is given.

Betting on famine by Jean Ziegler and Eating Animals look very much like what i was looking for, just a shame the former isn't out yet.

I take it you've Read Marx on _Wages, Price and Profit_? After that, do Lenin's Imperialism and then Wallerstein on World Systems.
