After the completion of the revolution in 1920, Mexico quickly
became an increasingly industrialized country. The vast changes
that occurred in the first fifty years after the revolution
inspired Erich Fromm and Michael Maccoby to find out how the
Mexican people were adapting. The result, Social Character in a
Mexican Village, provides a new approach to the analysis of social
phenomena.The authors applied Fromm's theories of psychoanalysis to
the study of groups. They devised an ingenious method of
questionnaires, which, combined with direct observation, clearly
revealed the psychic forces that motivated the peasant population.
In his new introduction, Michael Maccoby thoroughly explains the
basis of the study, how it originated, and how it was carried out.
He goes on to delineate the results and determine their impact on
the present day. Social Character in a Mexican Village throws new
light on one of the world's most pressing problems, the impact of
the industrialized world on the traditional character of the
peasant. This ground-breaking work will be invaluable to the work
of sociologists, anthropologists, and psychoanalysts.
