This study aims to explore the meaning of love and love orientation of Catholic widows based on Erich Fromm’s theory. The research model used qualitative research with descriptive phenomenology, based on interviews among four widow members of St Peter Paulus church. This interview data was analysed using thematic analysis techniques. The results showed the participants interpreted love as an effort to give what they have. Participant’s love orientation tends to be stronger towards children and God. Meanwhile, other orientations were also found namely grandchildren, nieces, neighbours, deceased spouses, friends and themselves. Productive love is experienced primarily in relationships with children, God, and people in their extended social spheres. Relationships with partners and themselves become the least dominant relationships in the life of a widow and less interpreted with productive love. Based on the results of this study it is advisable to the church to add a counselling for their member who has loss their partner (spouse) so that they regain a sense of self-worth.
Wonach sehnt sich der Mensch im Jahr 2020? – Er vernimmt den Ruf nach mehr Menschlichkeit und läuft einem ökologischen Umgang mit der Natur hinterher. Die atomisierte Gesellschaft und die Ausbeutung der Natur fordern eine existentielle Antwort des Menschen auf sein Dasein: Kann der Mensch beide Ansprüche integrieren? Wir nehmen an, dass der ethische Anspruch auf Menschlichkeit und der Anspruch auf Nachhaltigkeit in ihrer elementaren Form gleichermaßen gelten: Sind Menschlichkeit und
Nachhaltigkeit dann miteinander vereinbar? Auf der einen Seite fordert die humanistische Ethik nach Erich Fromm, die für das Prinzip der Menschlichkeit steht, die Entfaltung des menschlichen Potentials; auf der anderen Seite fordert die Ethik der Permakultur nach Bill Mollison, die das Prinzip der Nachhaltigkeit abbildet, die Entfaltung des Ökosystems Erde. Kommt es also zum Prinzipienkonflikt zwischen Humanismus und Holismus? Das ethische Prinzip der Menschlichkeit und das ethische Prinzip der Nachhaltigkeit stehen sich also gegenüber. Die analytische Frage ist, wie menschlich die holistische Ethik nach den Kriterien der humanistischen Ethik ist und vice versa, wie nachhaltig die humanistische Ethik nach den Kriterien der holistischen Ethik ist. Die Analyse zeigt, dass Nachhaltigkeit im Menschen angelegt ist. Wenn der Mensch mit sich, seinen Mitmenschen und der Welt produktiv in Beziehung tritt, dann handelt er nachhaltig. Ökologische Nachhaltigkeit entspringt also der Quelle der Menschlichkeit und liegt nicht
außerhalb des Menschen. Der biophile Mensch dreht sich um eine biozentrischen Achse, ist sich seines Menschseins bewusst und setzt sich als menschliche Natur mit der Natur in Beziehung. Konflikte zwischen Leben und Leben sind unvermeidbar, aber der produktiv orientierte Mensch wird einen reifen Umgang damit finden. Eine Schlussfolgerung daraus ist, dass ein >biophiler Regionalismus< eine alternative Wirtschaftsform darstellen kann, die sowohl die Forderung einer menschlichen Ökonomie als auch
die Forderung einer nachhaltigen Ökonomie einlösen kann. Im Kontext der aktuellen Debatte im Wirtschaftskontext bedarf es keiner >Green Economy<, sondern einer >Human Economy<: Denn nur ein Wirtschaften aus Menschlichkeit entspricht wahrer Nachhaltigkeit.
Given the current juncture in history, humanity is faced with the herculean task of adapting to a tumultuous present and a glimmer future. Should climate projections be accurate, there is little time to waste. This work makes the claim that we are not only in a political gridlock but also in an academic one. Researching climate philosophy from its inception, the concluding view is that no major progress, outside of a standardized descriptive analysis, has been achieved. Thus, the work evaluates an array of climate philosophers e.g. Stephen Gardiner, James Garvey, Peter Singer, Walter Sinnott-Armstrong, etc., with specific emphasis on the economic philosopher John Broome, suggesting that their recommendations and assessments fall short of being totalizing in scope and therefore of producing viable theories that, if practically sought after, can achieve social sustainability. To fix the problem of a lack of social and strategic trajectory, I offer up Erich Fromm's humanistic philosophy as a suggestive model. In doing so, the argument is made that this can aid in reorienting our external/empirical obsession by shifting our focus toward our ‘interiority – our internal worlds and psyches –, since a necessary condition in achieving sustainability is changing our mindset. By focusing on the human psyche, its structure and needs, can our behavior finally shift in a way that compliments scientific recommendations and ecological demands. Hence, Fromm lends the climate philosophy discussion an ontological framework from which to better direct and more readily navigate toward less socially precarious and more ethical inclined waters.
La necrocultura

Autor przedstawia perspektywę społeczno-kulturową uczenia się agresji i przemocy z głównym odniesieniem do kultury sportowej. Proble¬my agresji i destrukcyjności analizowane są w świetle koncepcji Aronsona, Fromma i innych teoretyków. Ukazano też historyczną perspektywę brutaliza¬cji sportu i instytucjonalnej tego akceptacji. Podjęto dyskusję dotyczącą traf¬ności eksplikacji zjawiska agresji. Od teorii ludzkiej destrukcyjności Ericha Fromma autor przechodzi do jej aplikacji – propozycji przeciwdziałania agre¬sywności z wykorzystaniem środków kultury fizycznej. Otóż „Humanistyczna Teoria Sztuk Walki”, komplementarna wobec koncepcji Fromma, i same umie¬jętnie nauczane sztuki walki w ich tradycyjnej postaci są drogami przeciwdziałania agresywności i dobrym sposobem profilaktyki przemocy.
O presente artigo aborda a concepção de amor de Erich Fromm na sua relação com a fé. O ato de amar, segundo o autor em foco, deve ser considerado uma atividade produtiva e interna, que se fundamenta em um aprimoramento das potencialidades psíquicas e emocionais do sujeito. Além disso, de acordo com Fromm, para amar verdadeiramente, é necessária a fé, que é concebida como um traço de caráter, sendo, assim, passível de desenvolvimento. No que tange à metodologia, este estudo pretende empreender uma leitura analítica das obras A arte de amar, Análise do homem e A revolução da esperança, todas de autoria de Erich Fromm, além de recorrer a trabalhos de comentadores do psicanalista humanista. Como objetivo principal, este artigo pretende elucidar as contribuições do pensamento frommiano no que diz respeito à relação entre a fé e o ato de amar. Pretendemos mostrar que, de acordo com Fromm, para o domínio da arte de amar, é necessário que o sujeito aprimore o seu caráter em favor de uma orientação produtiva, ou seja, é preciso que o indivíduo rompa com o narcisismo por intermédio da fé racional, desenvolva a humildade de reconhecer suas próprias limitações e potencialidades, e utilize a razão como um instrumento que o permita visualizar a pessoa amada como de fato ela é, e não como gostaria que ela fosse.
This article presents a clinical description of the solitary aspect of alcoholism and an original psychopathological theorization of alcoholic isolation. Our aim is to better understand this vulnerability of alcoholic patients and their secret sufferings. Solitary intoxication, whether or not in the presence of another or in a group, facilitates the avoidance of a reality experienced as too painful. This isolation would result from an early feeling of insecurity, close to that experienced in psychosis. A prototypical clinical case aims to explain how the problematic nature of this isolation can be identified and then elaborated, within a psychotherapeutic setting >that gives confidence< and starts from the >offer of speech.< We emphasize how the alcoholic individual can revisit the capacity to be alone in the presence of the other, which is a necessary condition for mentalizing a nonpathological solitude.
Hate may be regarded as a complex affective-cognitive emotion and attitude alloyed with aggression. Hate and aggression have both neurobiological and environmental determinants. Hate may be overt or covert, externalized or internalized, and/or somatized. Persistent recurrent painful and traumatic experiences generate and exacerbate hate and aggression. An amalgam of hate and love is evident in the ambivalence of all self and object relationships and in conscious and unconscious fantasy. In the mature personality, there is a preponderance of love over hate. There may be justified hatred of sociopathic individuals and groups.
