Oh I read history of west africa third edition vol 1 & 2 edited by J. F. Ade Ajayi and Michael Crowder - and they were a bunch of great books! I am currently also reading Nordic climate history.
Encyclopaedia Aethiopica is also massive and contains most information about ethipoia, idk if they talk about the derg. I wouldnt really count on it, since "normal" academia is fine with it.
Go on the Tinto maps forum, it has a bunch of resources for medieval/early modern regions. Some of the posters are even comrades.
Its not an easy task in general, especially for more niche materialist-focused readings. I have a bunch of pfds that you might like though.
Well, I’ve only started this in earnest over the past couple months, so I haven’t decided on a firm framework yet, and expect that it will evolve as time goes on. Understanding that having a perfect representation of every idea is nigh impossible, for very niche subjects it will probably be more effective to rely on wider known sources given that there’s fewer reliable ‘original’ sources in the first place. The central point is to provide mostly non-western perspectives, given that the latter are the typical default and most always biased and exclusionary from the outset. If I can’t find well-rounded analyses, then acknowledging limitations is a natural last step.
You'll find archived books on the internet archives website. They typically offer file formats epub, pdf, etc for whatever you need.
