埃里希·弗洛姆
许多人觉得自由令人恐惧,于是逃入服从或从众;美好的生活意味着“存在”和“爱”,而不是“占有”和“拥有”。

立场
Fromm set out to join Freud and Marx: the drives and anxieties of individuals are shaped by the economic structure of their society, and every society produces a typical “social character” that makes people want to do what they have to do. At the Institute he led an empirical study of German workers and employees, which found that many who voted for the left had authoritarian attitudes. Escape from Freedom (1941) traced the long history of this: modern people have been freed from medieval bonds but feel isolated and powerless, and many flee into submission, destructiveness or automatic conformity – the psychological soil of fascism. In Man for Himself (1947) and The Sane Society (1955) he developed a humanistic ethics in which the goal is productive activity and love, and The Art of Loving (1956) treats love as an art that needs practice. His departure from Freud’s libido theory led Herbert Marcuse to attack him in 1955 as a conformist “revisionist”. Fromm introduced Marx’s early manuscripts to American readers and drew on Spinoza, Meister Eckhart and Zen Buddhism. To Have or to Be? (1976) contrasts two modes of existence and became a text of the ecological and peace movements.
生平与背景
Erich Fromm was born in 1900 in Frankfurt am Main, the only child of an observant Jewish family with several rabbis among his ancestors. He studied in Frankfurt and Heidelberg, where he took his doctorate in sociology in 1922 with a thesis on Jewish law in the Diaspora under Alfred Weber. He trained as a psychoanalyst, partly in the Heidelberg sanatorium of Frieda Reichmann, whom he married in 1926, and broke with religious practice the same year. From 1930 to 1939 he worked at the Institute for Social Research, which he followed to New York in 1934. In 1949 he moved to Mexico City, where he taught at the National Autonomous University and helped found psychoanalytic training. He co-founded the disarmament organisation SANE in 1957, moved to Muralto in Switzerland in 1974 and died there in 1980.
