Abstract
Alienation is a state in which a person feels one-self alone,
estranged, worthless and meaningless. This may be the result of sociopolitical setup or due to capitalist surroundings but it is accepted fact that a
person who suffers this has to bear a psychological agony. In our history of
religions, it has been reported that Had’rat Adam complaint loneliness and
asked God for a companion. This makes clear that loneliness makes a man
estranged from one’s own surroundings. This estranged situation, for some
thinkers is purely psychological, for some ones it is an intellectual
phenomenon but for Karl Marx it is a material and social process which
affects human beings. In modern time, psychologists have explored its
variety of forms and their effects on persons and society. This research
paper presents its meaning, history, types and its effects on individual as
well as on society
