In 'You Shall Be as Gods,' Erich Fromm explores the existential void caused by the loss of faith in contemporary society, proposing a new humanism as a response. Fromm argues that the confusion between 'being' and 'having' leads individuals to compulsive consumerism to compensate for their anguish and isolation. The solution lies in transforming the socioeconomic structure to liberate and awaken humanity.
Erich Seligmann Fromm was a German-American social psychologist, psychoanalyst, sociologist, humanistic philosopher, and democratic socialist. He was a German Jew who fled the Nazi regime and settled in the United States. He was one of the founders of The William Alanson White Institute of Psychiatry, Psychoanalysis and Psychology in New York City and was associated with the Frankfurt School of critical theory.
