«El miedo a la libertad» is the essay by Erich Fromm, published by Paidós in paperback, in Spanish.
Fromm analyses the crisis of Western civilisation in relation to human freedom. Fascism and social standardisation act as collective forms of evading freedom, with consequences such as personal insignificance and resignation. He explains that modern man, freed from traditional ties, tends to shun his freedom.
The 1978 edition has 345 pages and belongs to the «Biblioteca del hombre contemporáneo» collection by Paidós.
For readers interested in philosophy and in understanding the mechanisms of authoritarianism and the relationship between the individual and society.
