- Title
Erich Fromm and Global Public Sociology.
- Abstract
Neil McLaughlin's I Erich Fromm and Global Public Sociology i is a byproduct of Michael Burawoy's impassioned 2004 presidential address to the American Sociological Association regarding the need for "public sociology." While Marcuse may have gotten the better of Fromm in the pages of I Dissent i , it was Fromm's success as a public sociologist that may have prompted him to write faster and more prophetically, to think more superficially, and to become more estranged from the networks of "marginal" scholars that had helped inspire his work in the 1940s and 1950s. In addition to establishing Fromm as a major public intellectual in mid-century sociology, I Escape from Freedom i also helps McLaughlin set the stage for the theoretical contours of Fromm's entire body of work.
