It is so hard to keep it going into the year, even with best intentions!
My vote is for Hyde, Jacobs, Solnit, and/or Mandoki. Great list.
That sounds like a good list -- I'd like to read some Latour, too. A couple suggestions to start with:
Bruno Latour
Reassembling the Social or The Politics of Nature

I stumbled across this blog when looking for Hal Foster resources. Is this a public group? I'm very interested! Where can I learn more?
