To Have or to Be?

"To Have or to Be?" by Erich Fromm explores two contrasting modes of human existence— the having mode, centered on material possessions and power, and the being mode, rooted in love and meaningful sharing. Recognized as a seminal work of the late 20th century, the book offers a thought-provoking perspective on the social and psychological shifts needed to address global challenges. It serves as a compelling call for socioeconomic change based on the principles of love and shared growth.
