“Fromm felt that [healthy, grounded] families and individuals occur only by chance at present as the kind of society that would more predictably create them does not yet exist. Fromm theorized that this society would be a product of what he called humanistic communitarian socialism.”

“. . . in which humane values would underlie the socioeconomic structure. The goal of humanistic communitarian socialism is a nonexploitative society, composed of small communities rather than large governmental or corporate entities, in which all members develop to their maximum ability, are self-regulating, and contribute fully as individuals and citizens.”
