So far non-negotiable will be 18th Brumaire; Du Bois “On the Dawn of Freedom,” and “The Soul of White Folk;" Scott, "Experience," D'Emilio, “Capitalism and Gay Identity;” Sartre, "The Problem of Meditations;" Beyond the Pleasure Principle; Time, Work-Disc and Ind. Capitalism

Shklar's The Liberalism of Fear gets at freedom in an interesting way. Something by Oakeshott (maybe On Being a Conservative) for doubt.
