También se estudia cómo éstas se relacionan con la enfermedad social a través del >narcisismo institucional<. Las posibles elecciones del adolescente están condicionadas por su carácter político (en el sentido de Fromm y Adorno) y se basan sobre la tipología de Merton, de respuestas a la anomia. Se describe el carácter revolucionario como más cercano a la respuesta >rebelled< de Merton y se la considera como respuesta más sana – en el sentido de salud social –. Se subraya la función de los educadores con relación al desplazamiento (en niños y jóvenes) desde el polo autoritario al polo revolucionario del carácter dada, entre otras cosas, su trascendencia social. N2 - Both members of an >AdolescencePolitics< equation are analyzed. From the political point of view, epistemological difficulties underlying its praxis-linked to both linear causality, and Gabel's >morbid rationalism<, are described. The way such difficulties are related to the social disease by means of an >institutional narcissism< is also described. It is the author's contention that an adolescent's possible choice is conditioned by its >political character< (according to Fromm's, and Adorno's use of such expression), and based on Merton's typology of responses to anomia. A >revolutionary character< is described as being the closest to Merton's >rebel< response, and – as regards a social health sense – dis considered to be the healthiest possible response. Emphasis is placed on teachers' role to help both children and youths in their displacement from the authoritarian character to the revolutionary one in view of the latter's social importance.

Using Northrop Frye's rubric of comedy as a point of departure, it traces the way in which Shua's text, like Kafka's work, simultaneously inscribes and distorts the traditional utopian themes of comedy: identity acquisition and social resolution. The aim is to relate the distortions to the novel's socio-historical context of El proceso by referring to Erich Fromm's observations on the effect Fascist regimes have on concepts such as social and individual identity. The article also exposes the correlation between Shua's cultural dependency (on Kafkaesque/European creative paradigms) and the novel's oppressive cultural/political context.

[Online ISSN 2052-2819] [doi.org/10.12968/bjon.1997.6.2.99] N2 - Self-image arises from a complex interaction of intrinsic and extrinsic factors. This article explores the importance of people with a learning disability attaining a positive self-image. It discusses the effect of society's perception of people with learning disabilities, and questions the willingness of the community to accept such people in a non-judgmental way. It argues that staff caring for this client group have a vital role to play in how people with learning disabilities are perceived by others and discusses the effects that a market philosophy (Fromm, 1978) and the popular media have on society regarding people with learning disabilities. Self-worth is important to everyone; however, the article concludes that a person with a learning disability is seriously disadvantaged in this respect. This aspect of care therefore requires insight, support and skills on the part of those healthcare professionals caring for this client group.

[Print ISSN 0027-0520] [monthlyreview.org/2019/01/01/capitalism-and-mental-health] N2 - The psychoanalytical framework developed by Marxist Erich Fromm strongly challenges the dominant biological and individualistic explanations of the mental-health crisis that is now sweeping the globe. Fromm emphasized that all humans have certain needs that must be fulfilled in order to ensure optimal mental health. It follows that capitalism is crucial to determining the experience and prevalence of mental well-being, as its operations are incompatible with true human need.

[doi.org/10.1007/BF01458125] N2 - The author discusses the ideas of three important psychoanalytic thinkers about group processes in large social groups: Sigmund Freud, Wilfred Bion, and Erich Fromm. Their ideas are developed and applied to analysis of group processes in totalitarian systems, as they were known to the author in Czechoslovakia and the Soviet Union. In conclusion, treatment considerations as they apply to patients who grew up in these regimes are developed and illustrated by clinical cases.

N2 - This article analyses a particular case of sanity and madness within the therapeutic setting as an expression of psychosis. It describes the story of a boy named Pedro who, between the ages of 12 and 16 years, struggled with mental balance – oscillating between lucidity, within a broken mind, and the madness required to stay healthy. The psychotherapeutic path was marked by a set of characters – real and fictional – that revealed his split functioning. In the plots Pedro created, he used the evil characters of any given movie saga in order to express himself. Like a dream, these narratives functioned as metaphors and metonyms, where the condensed forces of evil took over the symptom – which brings us to psychosis – while the good side, represented by an isolated and unprotected figure with which Pedro identified, revealed the displaced material of his unconscious desire. Although the psychotic parts of Pedro’s personality had been rehabilitated and integrated, his mental functioning remained marked by dissociation with reality, linked to the psychotic dysfunctionality. Therefore, even if his psychotic parts were contained and masked by clever humor, they were an indelible trace of his mental life.

[Online ISSN 2459-5160] [hrcak.srce.hr/file/226914] N2 - This paper deals with the construction of the postmodern identity of Jack Gladney, the main character in Don DeLillo’s >White Noise< (1985). Employing (post)modern, social psychology, and psychoanalytic theories of Zygmunt Bauman, Erich Fromm, Jean Baudrillard, and Gilles Lipovetsky, it analyzes the construction of Gladney’s character through his social roles as professor, husband, and consumer in the narrow sense of the word in order to deduce that his consumerist practices have spread to all aspects of his life. This reading reveals a new interpretation of Gladney’s fear of death; it shows that Gladney’s thanatophobia represents a consequence of his atheistic worldview. Namely, unable to find a haven in religion, he unsuccessfully seeks the meaning of life and death elsewhere, mainly in consumerism, which is identified as the source of his alienation from himself, people, and God. This paper suggests that numerous problems of postmodern life are caused by the lack of faith in God and proposes a conclusion that religion itself could be the answer to the difficulties faced by postmodern individuals with fragmented identities such as Jack Gladney. N2 - Ovaj rad bavi se pitanjem konstrukcije postmodernog identiteta Jacka Gladneya, glavnog lika u Don DeLillovom romanu Bijela buka (1985). Koristeći se (post)modernim, socijalno-psihološkim i psihoanalitičkim teorijama Zygmunta Baumana, Ericha Fromma, Jeana Baudrillarda i Gillesa Lipovetskog, rad analizira konstrukciju Gladneyeva lika kroz njegove društvene uloge profesora, supruga i potrošača u užem smislu riječi kako bi došao do zaključka da su se Gladneyevi konzumeristički postupci proširili na sve aspekte njegovog života. Ovo iščitavanje DeLillova djela otkriva novu interpretaciju Gladneyeva straha od smrti; ono pokazuje da Gladneyeva tanatofobija predstavlja posljedicu njegova ateističkog svjetonazora. Naime, s obzirom da ne može pronaći utočište u religiji, on bezuspješno traži značenje života i smrti drugdje, prvenstveno u konzumerizmu, koji je identificiran kao izvor Gladneyeva otuđenja od sebe, ljudi i Boga. Ovaj rad ukazuje na činjenicu da su brojni problemi postmodernog života uzrokovani nedostatkom vjere u Boga te donosi zaključak da bi vjera mogla biti rješenje za sve poteškoće s kojima se susreću postmoderni pojedinci s fragmentiranim identitetom, kao što je Jack Gladney Y1 - 2015 ER - TY - JOUR A1 - Medow, Mathilde T1 - Opplysningstidens humanistiske idealer og matematisk økonomi JF - E.
