The Fear of Freedom is a profound analysis of the crisis of Western civilization and man's relationship with freedom. Erich Fromm explores how modern society, despite freeing the individual from traditional ties, can lead to the evasion of freedom through conformism and submission to external powers. This book examines the consequences of this paradox on self-awareness, moral loneliness, and resignation, offering a critical perspective on the search for identity and meaning in the contemporary world.
Erich Seligmann Fromm was a German-American social psychologist, psychoanalyst, sociologist, humanistic philosopher, and democratic socialist. He was a German Jew who fled the Nazi regime and settled in the United States. He was one of the founders of The William Alanson White Institute of Psychiatry, Psychoanalysis and Psychology in New York City and was associated with the Frankfurt School of critical theory.
