"Crunchy Con" reading list

The "Crunchy Con" blog that author Rod Dreher has been running for the last few weeks is shutting down, after playing host to a series of very interesting posts, threads, and conversations.  One of the final posts, here, includes a reading list with some very good books (e.g., Jane Jacobs and Alasdair MacIntyre).

I have mixed feelings about this "crunchy con" business -- I can't help liking Starbucks and big-box retail, and I don't like organic stuff or patchouli -- but there's no getting around the fact, I think, that some elements of Dreher's vision -- subsidiarity, family, community, faith, urbanism -- resonate with the "Catholic thing."
