Due to a generous donation, the Erich Fromm Prize is awarded annually by the International Erich Fromm Society and is endowed with 10,000 Euros. The Erich Fromm Prize honors persons who, on the basis of their scholarly, scientific, social, sociopolitical, or journalistic commitment, have achieved or continue to achieve excellence in preserving or reviving humanistic thought and action in the tradition of Erich Fromm.<\/span><\/p>\n

The selection of the prizewinner is a majority decision of a five-person jury appointed by the Advisory Board of the International Erich Fromm Society. Although free in its decision, the jury invites nominations and applications for the Erich Fromm Prize. These nominations and applications should be submitted to Rainer Funk (Ursrainer Ring 24, D-72076 T\u00fcbingen, Germany; E-Mail: <\/span>\n frommfunk@gmail.com<\/a>) by April 1st of each year (for the awarding in the following year). The Erich Fromm Prize replaced the International Erich Fromm Prize, which was awarded until 2004.<\/span><\/p>\n

The conferral of the award is not only intended to honor humanistic commitment in the tradition of Erich Fromm. It also advances and sustains a greater awareness of the legacy of Erich Fromm among the general public. Accordingly, the awards ceremony is generally a public occasion.<\/span><\/p>\n
