Institutional gatekeeping quietly buried Fromm’s output long before his formal departure.
Evidence
The Institute had thus parted with a member of staff who had for a considerable time been the most significant one for its theoretical work. After 1935, however, only one article by him had been published in the ZfS. An `essay on principles’, written in 1937, which Fromm wanted to revise on the basis of criticisms by Horkheimer which he had agreed were reasonable, was not published, or at least did not appear in the ZfS. Fromm’s study on the working class never reached a stage at which Horkheimer considered it ready for publication. — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 293
