Erich Fromm analyzes the human's act of love from viewpoint of reality. Erich Fromm believes that to love one's flesh and blood is right and proper and is not difficult. Erich Fromm respects the love from one's own to others more with the hope of spreading love to kinsmen to the human being. Therefore, there are a lot of similarities as well as some differences between Confucianism's and Fromm's theory of love. Compared with the classic philosophy statements of Confucianism, it is more vital for Fromm's theory of love which is melted into the new era. Aiming the modern society is the new path of development for Confucianism.}, language = {zh} }
