إريك فروم : الشاهد الأخلاقي على اغتراب الغرب

Abstract EN

In the second article, touching on Erich Fromm’s character and titled “The Moral Evidence for the Alienation of the West,” the researcher in the Western philosophical thought Ahmad Al Faqih points out “that Erich Fromm could be one of a few in the post-modernity period who invested their scientific specialties in criticizing the contemporary Western civilization.

He did not restrict his psychoanalysis which he excelled in to clinical treatment or in university teaching, but he rather made it his pillar in the process of analyzing the modern social crises and specifically the reality of the human being in this society.

The same he did when he bluntly criticized the modernity developments in the West from the point of his being a moralistic philosopher and a sociologist.

The writer says: “Should we take, for example, the alienation Fromm dealt with as a conceptual key for constructing his intellectual project, we would discover how this issue forms the axis of this project.” We read in this article reviews on Erich Fromm’s intellectual project in addition to a presentation of the main junctions of this project focusing on the concept of “alienation” as a central argument in the intellectual strategy of Fromm, the philosopher.
