Fromm's theory suggests that society's form shapes what?

  • Individual Character

  • Landscape

  • Architectural Trend

  • Popular Haircuts

Answer

According to Erich Fromm, individual character is shaped by society's form. This is because the society we live in creates the values and beliefs that we adopt, and these values and beliefs in turn shape our personality and behavior. For example, in a society that emphasizes competition and individualism, people are more likely to be ambitious and self-reliant.
