Especially recommend 'A conflict of visions' and 'The vision of the anointed'. Very relevant to understanding current social justice activists and mainstream media.

A million times, yes. "A Conflict of Visions" is one of the few books whose ideas I see all around me -- every day --nearly 10 years after reading it.

Pair those with "intellectuals and society" to see why elites always prefer one vision over another, and why they never suffer consequences.

My favorite Sowell work is "The Quest for Cosmic Justice"

"The Quest for Cosmic Justice" is arguably even better than "Vision of the Anointed" on that score, imo.

The book is great. Once you start looking for the constrained vs. un-constrained vision adherents, you start seeing them everywhere. Intellectuals and Society is another great one.
