The purpose of this paper is to explore the potential connection between Consumer Education and Environmental Education for the purpose of avoiding the geo‐catastrophe of the human race. An educational approach has been made to examine this subject. I will examine Erich Fromm's thought, especially with reference to the ideas of >Social Character< and >the being mode of existence.< Hence an attempt to unite the two kinds of education will be made. The conclusion here is that a view of children's character formation dominated by >the being mode of existence< will be necessary.

>Femininity and Biophilia: The Role of the Feminine in Frommian Socialpsychology<: In view of the crisis-proneness that is such a feature of today’s relations between the sexes and, also, the break-up of traditional family structures, the >gender question< is a particularly urgent one. Fromm’s various contributions to this topic are gathered together in Liebe, Sexualität und Matriarchat [= Love, Sexuality and Matriarchy], which was published early in 1994. Fromm attributed to the productive dissolution of primary bonds – the maternal and paternal bonds – a leading role in productive characterological development. The nature and mode of male-female relations in later life is heavily dependent on this occurring. Male-female transactions, as Fromm sees them, are specified by the matriarchal and patriarchal social structures as well as the dominant social-characterological orientations. Ever since the origins of patriarchy, ostensively biology-rooted gender differences – which Fromm saw as being essentially social in nature – have been misused in the interests of shoring up male rule. The current crisis our system finds itself in at all levels is an expression of the crisis of patriarchy, which has always kept down female identity and strength – nor have the great religions been spared its influence either. For in Christianity too, especially in the Protestant variant, specifically feminine values were always denied an outlet. By taking a hard look at Bachofen and his analysis of matriarchal cultures, at Freud and his deep roots in the patriarchal order, at the Old Testament and the Babylonian myths of creation – with their images of gods and goddesses – Fromm brings out the social constraints at work in forming male and female identity. Only when contemporary society succeeds in divesting itself of its lack of female identity models, of matriarchal values, can a conciliatory integration of male and female principles take place – only then can biophilia and the productive character be helped into life.

>Myths of Femininity and the Splitting of Human Existence: Simone de Beavoir's Critique of the Religious Justification of >Femininity<: In her celebrated work, Le Deuxième Sexe, Simone de Beauvoir analyses factors that are constitutive of the life situations women find themselves in. Of particular importance here are male conceptions about how women are or should be, since in a patriarchal world men even possess the power to mould the life situations available to women. For centuries they have defined the essence and nature of women and set up ideals of femininity, these being invariably informed by the assumption that >women's essence is their (absolute) otherness<. Simone de Beauvoir interprets the representational forms of femininity thus set up as in reality myths, because (and in so far as) they can be decoded as hermeneutic nodes around which have collected male images of self, world, and God, i.e. as an expression of how men have come to see the conditio humana, of how they have attempted to come to terms with their own existential situation. In end effect, myths of femininity testify to an inability to authentically shoulder the burden of human existence in all its ambiguity. The Christian representational forms of femininity are only one exemplary area, though one that is of elemental importance in our culture because of its persistent influence. These theses by Simone de Beauvoir are expounded here in five steps. After sketching her biographical and philosophical background, the author goes into Simone de Beauvoir's notion of gender as a social category, then into the celebrated thesis of woman as the other sex, as simply the other – in order to lay the groundwork for a discussion of her religious critique. The author concludes her treatment by proposing eight interlocking theses.

Das Vorhandensein von struktureller Gewalt in unserer Gesellschaft wird erörtert, und Möglichkeiten zum Widerstand gegen diese Gewalt werden aufgezeigt. Ausgehend vom Gewaltbegriff von Galtung und der Theorie des Sozialcharakters von FROMM wird das Entstehen struktureller Gewalt an einem Beispiel, nämlich dem Slogan >Gewaltfreier Widerstand ist Gewalt<, veranschaulicht.

>Fears of Loss and Some Treatment Suggestions with Reference to Persons of >Authoritarian< Character<: This essay deals with irrational fears grounded in social forces. The main analytic focus is on typical fears of loss in persons of >authoritarian< character. The author is also concerned to indicate possible counter- strategies. Starting from the basic psychic need for relatedness, Stefan Otto looks at authoritarian relatedness patterns and reveals their close links with fear. He also draws on the findings of a social-psychological study of the social character of men and women teachers, conducted by one of the International Erich Fromm Society’s study groups.

The two dominant voices in the work of Erich FROMM, particularly in his psychoanalysis, are examined: the analytic and the prophetic. The analytic voice was skeptical and inquiring. It searched for answers to questions and did not condemn the answers received. In contrast, the prophetic voice was urgent and judgmental; condemnation rather than analysis of perverse human behavior was the result. From the analytic perspective, psychoanalysis was a vehicle for the liberation of people from fear and the realization of creative potential. From the prophetic perspective, psychoanalysis was a spiritual discipline that could tap people's social and spiritual revolutionary potential. Unfortunately, FROMM's two voices were often in disharmony. FROMM's failure to harmonize the two voices limited his ability as a therapist and created confusion about the methods and goals of psychoanalysis. D. Generoli
