This general distinction underlies I. Berlin's concept of negative and positive freedom, and E. Fromm's concept of >freedom from< and >freedom to<. The authors of this paper introduce the concept of extrinsic and intrinsic sense of freedom which is meant to be psychological representation of the philosophical distinction on unconditional and conditional freedom, respectively. An extrinsic freedom results from a lack of external restrictions/barriers, whereas intrinsic freedom is based on the belief that being free means compatibility between one's own actions and preferred values, life goals or worldview. Based on nationwide survey data, the authors show that both forms of freedom are embedded in entirely different basic human values and moral intuitions. Further, it is shown that intrinsic freedom negatively predicts liberal orientation and clearly favors communitarian orientation, whereas extrinsic freedom clearly favors liberal orientation. The authors argue that both forms of experiencing freedom have different effects on support for the principles of liberal democracy. The positive effect of extrinsic freedom is indirect, i.e., entirely mediated by liberal orientation. On the other hand, the effect of intrinsic freedom can be decomposed into three components: a) as a positive direct effect, b) as a positive indirect effect (by strengthening the communitarian orientation), and c) as a negative indirect effect (by weakening the liberal orientation). In conclusion, the consequences of intrinsic and extrinsic freedom are discussed in the light of their relationships with support for democratic principles.}, language = {en} } @article{Cawood, author = {Cawood, Helen-Mary}, title = {Fromm's ethic of solidarity and the potential for critical communitarianism}, series = {South African Journal of Philosophy, Vol. 38, No. 2 (2019), pp. 166-179.

The role of community in this ethic is vital, as Fromm argues for the existence of an intrinsically human need for belonging and communion. According to Fromm, the breakdown of traditional societies in modernity and the adoption of strong anti-traditionalist paradigms in both liberalism and Marxism has paradoxically led to the desire in the contemporary individual to >escape< this freedom, too often resulting in an uncritical adoption of what Eric Hobsbawm calls >invented traditions< in order to rediscover a shared sense of humankind. This article therefore contends that 1) Fromm advocates a form of >critical communitarianism<; and 2) that critical communitarianism can provide a strong foundation for an ethical confrontation with neoliberal modernity, and thereby a reconsidered form of community through human solidarity.}, language = {en} } @article{Zhu, author = {Zhu, Rui}, title = {On the Contradictions of Human Nature in Yu Hua's Literary Work [论余华文学作品中的人性矛盾] [application of Fromm's theories to art]}, series = {Business [商], No. 46 (2015), pp. 133, 120.}, journal = {Business [商], No. 46 (2015), pp. 133, 120.}, abstract = {余华关注于文明遮挡下的原始人性,通过零度感情的笔触对暴力和死亡的描写,反映了生存的荒诞性和生命的坚韧,折射出人性的种种可能,本文通过弗洛姆的人性理论对余华作品中呈现的原生态人性进行分析梳理,以新的视角,由人性切入,对余华作品进行重新审视 ]}, language = {zh} } @article{Loewy, author = {Loewy, Michael}, title = {Anticapitalist Readings of Weber's Protestant Ethic: Ernst Bloch, Walter Benjamin, Gy{\"o}rgy Lukacs, Erich Fromm}, series = {International Conference for Religion and Politics in the Secular World, October 10, 2009, Shanghai, in: Proceedings of the International Conference for Religion and Politics in the Secular World, Shanghai, China.}, journal = {International Conference for Religion and Politics in the Secular World, October 10, 2009, Shanghai, in: Proceedings of the International Conference for Religion and Politics in the Secular World, Shanghai, China.}, abstract = {This paper will try to analyze a curious intellectual phenomena: a group of Jewish-German authors that developed, during the Weimar Republic, a radical anti-capitalist and anti-protestant argument, directly inspired by Weber's Protestant Ethic.
