Have you read David Graeber's "The Dawn of Everything"? It touches on similar themes to: > We're a really kind of unimaginative people when it comes to talking about how one arranges things in society by asking "how did we get that way?"

Yes! Brilliant book. More folks should read it. I also really enjoyed “Against the Grain” and “Seeing Like a State” by James C Scott - both really dig into social narratives and the ways we talk about history and society.
