A single addition to the "top ten":

Juan Antonio Blanco. 1995. Tercer Milenio: Una Visi=F3n Alternativa de la
Posmodernidad. La Habana: Centro Felix Varela.

This text is a contribution to wst from non-core Cuba, providing a great
account of the Soviet Union and (largely implicitly) Cuba within the
world-system and the implications of this. Blanco shows how the development
project of socialist Cuba was based on premises common to those of
capitalism ("the other great culture of modernism"), with outcomes that have
undermined many of the early objectives of the Revolution.=20

Thanks to the others for the humbling lists.
