Have you read David Graeber's "The Dawn of Everything"? It touches on similar themes to:

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.
