Acerca de esta escucha

lf a man cannot stand freedom, he will probably turn fascist. This, in the fewest possible words, is the essential argument in this modem classic, Escape from Freedom. The author, Erich Fromm, is a distinguished psychologist, late of Berlin and Heidelberg, now of New York City.

He applies the psychoanalytical method to the illness of our civilization which expresses itself in an abject submission to dictatorship. It is true that the rise of democracy set men free and brought to an end the authority of the medieval state and the medieval church. But it brought into existence a society where a man feels isolated from his fellows, where relationships in an industrial age are impersonal, where insecurity replaces a sense of belonging.

This sense of isolation may drive an individual to one of various forms of escape. lt may drive a people to seek escape in blind devotion to a leader, in utter submission to an all-powerful state, into a barbarous and sadistic program of aggression against minority groups or neighbor nations.

Few books since the rise of the dictators have thrown such light upon our times. Few books have penetrated so clearly into the causes of fascism and Nazism - and into the inherent qualities of a democracy. In his psychoanalysis of the social scene, the author makes a new contribution to psychology by modifying the basic concepts of Freud in placing a purely biological orientation by a cultural one.

To all who see that democracy today faces its gravest hour, Dr. Fromm illustrates the essential character of the danger and the nature of democracy's responsibility. By its brilliant exposition of the modern social scene Escape from Freedom will help clarify many of today's most perplexing problems.

I don't know what to say. The concepts covered in this book and the questions of freedom truly being what we think it is - or being just another cage but self-imposed... The ideas that we accept everyday as being reality, are they authentically our own or unquestioned assumptions from our respective societies? Can we accept ourselves and others as who we truly are, shadow sides and unreasonable parts included?

Amazing.

This book is needed in the US- and the entire world- now more than ever. If you’re looking at this title at all, GET IT. The narrator is a bit monotone and at first that was difficult for me but the content it so rich and full that I came to truly appreciate his consistency and found his tone to be ideal for the subject.

The thorough analysis of the psychological drivers of men’s abdication of freedom (social and emotional isolation) is more relevant today than it was when first written. The advent of social media technologies has only exacerbated the feelings of isolation, which, according to Fromm’s theories, has led to an embrace of fascist authoritarianism in modern American society.

Brilliant and even more relevant today than when it was originally written.

Fromm is an amazing theorist, but the narrator read the entire book without an ounce of inflection. It was so difficult to listen to, that my mind would wander and I would forget what was going on. I loved the content, but the narrator ruined it. Did he understand what he was saying? I can't be sure.

Monotonous Narrator

Erich Fromm was brilliant! Art of Loving, To Be or to Have and this one is incredibly valuable. I wish he had not titled the book Escape From Freedom but called it something like, How to Free Your Mind. Highly recommend this book!

1941 book with great new introduction. Very timely

I loved this book even though it's diffucult to absorb and digest in few sessions. I needed a month to finish but it was worth it!

Still relevant in 2016!

In a way that only an academic could do, he pushes a few of his opinions as facts. I love the part where he says, "for whatever reason socialism did not work".

facts vs. opinion

If you are struggling to make sense of the shift toward supporting authoritarian leaders, this book is for you. Fromm’s brilliant analysis brings it into sharp focus.

Written in 1941, it explains Hitler's thinking, the effects of Martin Luther and John Calvin in social psychology and is current and applicable to modern democracy, employment, education and child-rearing. I found myself surprised by ways I have submitted to ideologies in my own life. I wrote down many quotes.

Excellent
