Rate this book
Para celebrar el 125.º aniversario del nacimiento de Erich Fromm, presentamos esta obra inédita que recoge los artículos del autor en los que aborda la pervivencia del amor en la vida.

¿A qué aspiramos en la vida? ¿Qué la determina?

Erich Fromm siempre ha aportado valiosos elementos de reflexión sobre aspectos tan elementales como cómo ser auténticos o creativos, cómo definir nuestra vida, cómo querernos a nosotros mismos, o cómo afrontamos la muerte o la depresión. Asimismo, a Fromm se le conoce por abordar un tema muy concreto y de una relevancia ¿qué pasaría si introdujéramos una renta básica en los individuos y la sociedad?

En ¿Amamos aún la vida?, Fromm nos presenta una de las principales cuestiones de nuestra existencia, que sigue siendo de gran ¿pasamos por la vida de manera acelerada o nos detenemos a vivirla y, sobre todo, a amarla?

About the author

Erich Fromm

447 books5,296 followers
Erich Fromm, Ph.D. (Sociology, University of Heidelberg, 1922) 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.

Fromm explored the interaction between psychology and society, and held various professorships in psychology in the U.S. and Mexico in the mid-20th century.

Fromm's theory is a rather unique blend of Freud and Marx. Freud, of course, emphasized the unconscious, biological drives, repression, and so on. In other words, Freud postulated that our characters were determined by biology. Marx, on the other hand, saw people as determined by their society, and most especially by their economic systems.
