Escaping From Freedom ebook
Do you wonder why our society and much of the world experiences conflicts and wars, and is misled by wild conspiracy theories or divided by arrogance and finger pointing?
Find out from a sociological and psychological basis why individuals and societies become vulnerable to the enticement of authoritarianism, to conspiracy theories, and to the arrogance of elites who feel they are superior.
Most importantly, read about how we can heal these divisions and the pain that results. (Choose epub, kpf/Kindle, or PDF format.)
How can "those people" believe that?
In times of division and loss of understanding, we need to look more closely, with an open mind and heart.
This ebook presents in a clear manner the driving forces behind the move to authoritarianism in this country and some other countries as well, past, present, and future, and how to build a better society so true freedom can prevail.
The ebook builds on the insights of Erich Fromm's iconic 1941 book Escape From Freedom, in order to shed light and offer emotional connection to people today who want more insight.
In this way, we can understand better and take effective action in society to promote healing and improvement in the real quality of life.
