    I've got a few!

    • https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/cross_fac/complexity/people/students/dtc/students2011/maitland/philosophy/sartre-eih.pdf (Existentialism is a Humanism, J.P. Sartre)
    • https://www.marxists.org/reference/archive/mao/selected-works/volume-1/mswv1_17.htm (On Contradiction, Mao, maybe on the longer side of texts we are willing to consider for this?)
    • http://thephilosophicalsalon.com/la-la-land-a-leninist-reading/ (cultural analysis by Žižek, haven't read this one)

    I only restricted myself to philosophical texts, but can we include texts that are less directly philosophical but have philosophical value? E.g. The Stranger is a novel, but has lots of philosophical value (I know it's too long, just giving a example)

        I took many notes when reading On Contradiction and I would like to participate to that discussion :p.

        Now, if we take also philosophical stories, I think I can find others but I need to think more about it, I can't remember any short one just now.

        By the way, I would like to add to the list

        • https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1845/theses/theses.htm Theses On Feuerbach, Marx, because I think there is a lot to unpack there and it is extremely short.

      If we do On Contradiction, we should also do On Practice (https://www.marxists.org/reference/archive/mao/selected-works/volume-1/mswv1_16.htm). Probably the best description of dialectics I've ever read

      Edit: dialectics and their relation to revolutionary action
