Hi,
Assuming you took a glance at Plato and Aristotle,
By Arendt :
"The Human Condition", "Between Past and Future", "On Revolution" ;
About everything by Rancière if you could find it in English ;
Leo Strauss "What Is Political Philosophy", if you got a good teacher at hand, otherwise it's a bad idea (very misleading without an extensive knowledge of philosophy) ;
"The Prince" and "Discourses on the first decade of Titus Livy" by Machiavelli, and if you can find it, what Claude Lefort says about it
