Essay / Research Paper Abstract
This 7 page report discusses how
psychoanalyst Erich Fromm (1900-1980) presented the philosophy
and thinking of Karl Marx. Fromm was convinced that Marx was
terribly misunderstood, especially by the communists of the
former Soviet Union who attempted to co-opt his thinking. As
Fromm explains Marx’s concept of socialism, the most important
fact is that he interpreted Marx to mean that “socialism is not a
society of regimented, automatized individuals, regardless of
whether there is equality of income or not, and regardless of
whether they are well fed and well clad. It is not a society in
which the individual is subordinated to the state, to the
machine, to the bureaucracy.” Bibliography lists 8 sources.

Union who attempted to co-opt his thinking and bend it to their own political intent. As Fromm explains Marxs concept of socialism, the most important fact for the student to
understand is what Fromm explains in the following section of Marxs Concept of Man (1961): "Marxs concept of socialism follows from his concept of man. It should be clear by
now that according to this concept, socialism is not a society of regimented, automatized individuals, regardless of whether there is equality of income or not, and regardless of whether they
