ABSTRAKTesis ini membahas kaitan antara perkembangan kapitalisme kontemporer dengan
krisis modernitas yang melanda peradaban Barat di Abad ke-20 menurut sudut
pandang Erich Fromm. Maksud khusus dari tesis ini adalah memperkenalkan
sekaligus mengintegrasikan pemikiran Fromm ke dalam diskursus disiplin
sosiologi kontemporer. Peneliti sangat yakin bahwa pemikiran Fromm akan
sangat bermanfaat bagi perkembangan ke depan disiplin sosiologi. Kebaharuan
pemikiran Fromm bagi sosiologi adalah untuk memperluas cakupan dan
kedalaman analisa masalah sosial sampai ke wilayah yang paling fundamental,
yakni mental dan kesadaran manusia.
Penelitian ini adalah penelitian kualitatif dengan menggunakan teknik studi
pustaka. Teknik studi pustaka mengambil dua bentuk, pertama adalah dengan
analisa-deskriptif dan kedua adalah dengan analisa-komparasi. Teknik analisadeskriptif
dilakukan dengan membaca pemikiran Fromm di sejumlah buku
maupun jurnal yang berkaitan dengan tema yang telah dipilih. Sumber primer
penelitian ini adalah buku The Sane Society. Sementara, teknik analisa-komparasi
dilakukan dengan membandingkan pemikiran Fromm dengan pemikir sosial lain
yang relevan dalam membahas tema yang sama. Untuk menambah kedalaman
pemahaman dan menghindari bias interpretasi, Peneliti juga menambahkan teknik
hermeunitika.
Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa krisis modernitas yang melanda Dunia Barat
di abad ke-20 berkaitan erat dengan perkembangan kapitalisme kontemporer.
Ironis bagi Fromm bahwa ketika peradaban Barat telah berhasil mencapai tingkat
keberlimpahan kehidupan material yang belum pernah terjadi sepanjang sejarah,
justru di sana terjadi pemiskinan atau pemelaratan kehidupan batin. Manusia
dikonversi layaknya benda. Meningkatnya angka kasus bunuh diri, pembunuhan,
narkotika dan alkoholisme menjadi evidensi berkenaan dengan kekosongan
kehidupan batin yang melanda manusia Barat. Fromm merekomendasikan usulan
sebagai jalan pemecahan krisis, yang disebutnya sebagai ?sosialismekomunitarian?
ABSTRACTThis thesis discusses the link between the development of contemporary
capitalism with modernity crisis that hit Western civilization in the 20th century
from the perspectives of Erich Fromm. The special purpose of this thesis is
introduced at the same time integrating the discourse thought of Fromm into
contemporary sociology discipline. The Researcher is very confident that Fromm
thought would be very helpful for the future development of the discipline of
sociology. The newest Fromm thought for sociology is to broaden the scope and
depth of social issues analysis to the most fundamental areas, the mental and
human consciousness.
This study is a qualitative study using the technique literature. Library research
techniques take two forms, the first is the descriptive-analysis and the second is by
comparison-analysis. Descriptive analysis techniques performed by reading
Fromm thinking in a number of books and journals relating to the chosen theme.
The primary source is the book The Sane Society. Meanwhile, technique
comparison-analysis is done by comparing Fromm thoughts with other relevant
social thinkers in discussing the same theme. To add to the depth of understanding
and avoid interpretation bias, Researcher also added hermeunitika techniques.
This study concludes that the crisis of modernity that struck the Western World in
the 20th century is closely related to the development of contemporary capitalism.
Fromm ironic that when the Western civilization has managed to reach the level
of abundance of material life that has never happened in the history, there actually
occurs impoverishment or declineness inner life. Converted humans like objects.
The increasing number of suicides, murders, drugs and alcoholism became void of
evidence with respect to the inner life of human beings that hit the West. Fromm
recommended proposals as a way of solving the crisis, which he called
"communitarian-socialism".;This thesis discusses the link between the development of contemporary
