Publisher Description In this important book, Thomas R. Flynn reinterprets and evaluates Sartres social and political philosophy, arguing that the existential ethics of Sartres early phase is consistent with the Marxist-inspired views of his later writings. Displaying his mastery of Sartres entire corpus, Flynn reconstructs Sartres social ontology with its sensitive balance of the existentialists respect for moral responsibility and the Marxists sense of social causation. Flynn focuses on the issue of collective responsibility as a particularly apt test-case for assessing any proposed union of existentialist and Marxist perspectives. The study begins with an examination of the uses of "responsibility" in Being and Nothingness and in several postwar essays. Flynn then concentrates on the Critique of Dialectical Reason, offering a thorough analysis of the remarkable social theory Sartre constructs there. A masterful contribution to Sartre scholarship, Sartre and Marxist Existentialism will be of great interest to social and political philosophers involved in the debate over collective responsibility. Author Biography Thomas R. Flynn is associate professor of philosophy at Emory University. He has contributed to several volumes on Sartre and to scholarly journals.
