The Chomsky Reader is a good place to start. It reads very slowly especially when you imagine it in Chomsky's voice, but I like how he actually makes his point by sarcastically giving the opposing view's arguments.
Another good one and not very much known is one I think I mentioned in here, Obsolete Communism, The Left-Wing Alternative. It's specifically about socialism, but Daniel Cohn-Bendit is an awesome guy that knows how to write.
Something more in touch with today would be Naomi Klein's The Shock Doctrine.
