Why do people choose authoritarianism over freedom? The classic study of the psychological appeal of fascism by a New York Times–bestselling author.
The pursuit of freedom has indelibly marked Western culture since Renaissance humanism and Protestantism began the fight for individualism and self-determination. This freedom, however, can make people feel unmoored, and is often accompanied by feelings of isolation, fear, and the loss of self, all leading to a desire for authoritarianism, conformity, or destructiveness.

It is not only the question of freedom that makes Fromm's debut book a timeless classic. In this examination of the roots of Nazism and fascism in Europe, Fromm also explains how economic and social constraints can also lead to authoritarianism.
By the author of The Sane Society and The Anatomy of Human Destructiveness, this is a fascinating examination of the anxiety that underlies our darkest impulses, an enlightening volume perfect for readers of Eric Hoffer or Hannah Arendt.

This ebook features an illustrated biography of Erich Fromm including rare images and never-before-seen documents from the author's estate.
Erich Fromm (1900–1980) was a bestselling psychoanalyst and social philosopher whose views about alienation, love, and sanity in society—discussed in his books such as Escape from Freedom, The Art of Loving, The Sane Society, and To Have or To Be?—helped shape the landscape of psychology in the mid-twentieth century. Fromm was born in Frankfurt, Germany, to Jewish parents, and studied at the universities of Frankfurt, Heidelberg (where in 1922 he earned his doctorate in sociology), and Munich. In the 1930s, he was one of the most influential figures at the Frankfurt Institute of Social Research. In 1934, as the Nazis rose to power, he moved to the United States. He practiced psychoanalysis in both New York and Mexico City before moving to Switzerland in 1974, where he continued his work until his death.
《逃避自由》是法兰克福学派重要成员埃里希·弗洛姆的代表之作,一本以精神分析心理学为切入点剖析极权主义和批判现代社会的惊世力作,与哈耶克的《通往奴役之路》,波普尔的《开放社会及其敌人》并称为反极权主义三大经典著作。如果想要了解这位一生致力于批判现代工业社会的...
評分时至今日,距离弗洛姆所属的法兰克福学派的兴盛时期,已经过去了半个世纪,弗洛姆本人离世也已三十年矣。那些提倡无私奉献、利他主义和牺牲精神,曾经烜赫一时的集权国家早已烟消云散,或是只留下一个苟延残喘的残躯。这一点作为中国人想必有着深刻的体认。然而旧的权威的破灭...

評分 評分跳掉瞭VI章,最後一章看的眼紅紅。Only if we have faith in the PEOPLE。這裏提到的planned economy並不是我們日常使用的定義,事實上他以蘇聯為例批判瞭這種被小集團綁架的socialism,他所設想的是democratic socialism,即把democracy擴大化,而不僅局限於政治領域,隻有深入到生活的方方麵麵,纔能給個體人以真正的自由。第一眼看起來和之前讀過的malaise of modernity有衝突,畢竟後者提及inner morality時還是訴諸於神性之類,而這恰是這本批判的對象之一,但二者又殊途同歸,如果把後者提到的inner voice看作是人本初所具有的,超越現實偶像崇拜化的宗教。
评分最好讀的書之一。文辭高雅,解釋瞭過去眼下的很多社會問題,更重要的是描繪瞭一個真正的理想國,理想人。越看到後麵越受激勵。
