The Anthropological Problems of Sartre’s View of Being

The division of Sartre’s concept of Being into “being-in-itself” and “being-for-itself”, but ‘’being-for-itself’’ human has been discussed. An attempt is made to determine some potential anthropological problems regarding this concept of being, which defines the Human as a ‘‘project’’ and in correlation, ‘‘a being who makes choices’’. In this view of freedom which is the fibre of the human being, to exist and to be free are shown as one and the same thing in their relation with the situation of his existence in the world.

According to Sartre a human being in this project is not only someone whit projects but also a project entire of oneself. ‘‘A human being as a project’’ will be the one this human being envisages oneself and there is no escape from this project. In this context, the concepts of consciousness, project, choice, desire of being are examined [...]
