ABSTRACT My research explores Erich Fromm’s social theories of narcissism, alienation and authoritarianism for the purpose of linking those theories together, thereby analysing current populist phenomena as an extension of a fascist development in terms of Enzo Traverso’s conception of post-fascism. In my view, Fromm’s critical social theory of narcissism, which pertains to his two other theories, has great potential to unravel current political issues in liberal democracies that are generally tackled in terms of populism. Through a demonstration of the theoretical scope of Fromm’s social theory, which sheds light on pathological social and political phenomena in historical continuity, I argue that the primary tasks of Critical Theory in Frommian terms are to divulge the sources of fascist orientations in seemingly democratic practice and to offer appropriate remedies for these difficulties. In this light, I conclude that in terms of a Frommian social theory of narcissism, fascist types of politics thrive even in advanced liberal-democratic countries, taking the form of authoritarian populism, particularly where society rests on a narcissistic character structure intertwined with an authoritarian orientation.

弗洛米安对自由民主制后法西斯主义社会心理结构的看法

摘要我的研究探索了埃里希·弗洛姆的自恋，异化和威权主义社会理论，目的是将这些理论联系在一起，从而根据恩佐·特拉沃索对后法西斯主义的概念，将当前的民粹主义现象作为法西斯主义发展的延伸加以分析。我认为，弗洛姆的自恋社会批判性社会理论与他的另外两个理论有关，具有很大的潜力来揭示自由民主国家当前的政治问题，这些问题通常以民粹主义来解决。通过论证弗洛姆社会理论的理论范围，揭示了历史连续性中的病态社会和政治现象，我认为，用弗洛米安的术语进行批判理论的主要任务是，在看似民主的实践中揭示法西斯取向的根源，并为这些困难提供适当的补救措施。因此，我得出结论，就弗洛米斯式的自恋社会理论而言，即使在先进的自由民主国家中，法西斯主义的政治仍在蓬勃发展，采取威权民粹主义的形式，特别是在社会依赖于与威权主义者交织在一起的自恋性格结构的情况下方向。
