This book depicts Erich Fromm as a political theorist despite infrequent reference to him in the field of political theory. It shows Fromm's political theory extends far beyond the disciplinary boundaries of political theory and how his distinctive psychoanalytic perspective is key to understanding the essence of fascist politics and tackling complex socio-political problems such as authoritarianism and alienation. The volume argues that Fromm's socio-psychoanalytic analysis with his unique characterological approach to political theory is essential in deciphering and dealing with twenty-first century fascism, postfascism. Accessible and comprehensive, the volume will be of great interest to students, scholars and researchers of political theory, especially fascism and authoritarianism.
