Eric Fromm

Erich Fromm was a German-born social psychologist, philosopher, and psychoanalyst known for exploring how human feelings, society, and culture influence our behaviors and capacity for love and freedom. He believed that true well-being comes from developing genuine connections and understanding oneself, rather than seeking superficial possessions or status. Fromm emphasized the importance of societal structures in shaping individual choices and promoted the idea that personal growth and social responsibility are linked. His work bridges psychology, philosophy, and sociology, encouraging us to reflect on what it means to live authentically and compassionately within society.
