Basic Education in India
(1958)
Der kurze Beitrag >Der Einfluss gesellschaftlicher Faktoren auf die Entwicklung des Kindes< – aus einem in spanischer Sprache gehaltenen Vortrag entstanden – macht am Beispiel der Erziehung anschaulich, wie sich Fromm den Prägungszusammenhang von Gesellschaft und Charakter vorstellt und zu welchen Konflikten es zwischen den Erwartungen der Gesellschaft und den psychischen Bedürfnissen des Menschen kommen kann.
Diagnosis and Symptomatology
(1958)
Fromm's theoretical position of the >Marketing Orientation< is related to counseling attitudes and aspects of the counselor-patient relationship. Conflicting sets of value orientation are described and their influence noted. The author's primary thesis has been that the counseling psychologist often adopts a conflicting set of value orientations in his relationships with patients and the community. In some relationships, the counselor may respond to the patient primarily in terms of the latter's inherent potential with no reference to his >marketable< characteristics, but at other times he may lay heavy emphasis upon the patient's marketability. Also observed is the fact that the counselor is often totally unaware of his reversal of attitudes and of its effects upon patients. It has been suggested that although the emphasis upon a marketing orientation may foster lessened self-esteem in some patients, the adoption of such an attitude may be a necessary first stage in helping patients who have been hospitalized with psychotic episodes to leave the hospital setting. In any case, it is crucial for the counselor to be aware of his underlying value assumptions in order that his relationships to patients will be characterized by an underlying consistency.
