The For-itself is diasporatic, dispersed into several dimensions of being which the In-itself lacks.

Evidence

The For-itself rising into being as the nihilation of the In-itself constitutes itself simultaneously in all the possible dimensions of nihilation. From whatever point of view it is considered, it is the being which holds to itself by a single thread, or more precisely it is the being which by being causes all the possible dimensions of its nihilation to exist. In the ancient world the profound cohesion and dispersion of the Jewish people was designated by the term “Diaspora.” It is this word which will serve to designate the mode of being of the For-itself; it is diasporatic. Being-in-itself has only one dimension of being, but the appearance of nothingness as that which is made-to-be at the heart of being complicates the existential structure by causing the appearance of the ontological mirage of the Self. — Jean-Paul Sartre, Being and Nothingness, 473

Categorization

• DEFINE: Introduces ‘diasporatic’ as Sartre’s term for the For-itself’s dispersed, quasi-multiple mode of being, contrasting with the In-itself’s single dimension.
• XREF: The ‘ontological mirage of the Self’ and Diaspora motif connects forward to the being-for-others dimension and to later existentialist accounts of self-dispersion; also echoes the foundational setup for Beauvoir’s ethics of situated freedom. — connects to: The in-itself and for-itself are two radically separated regions of being; The for-itself is only the emptiness where the in-itself detaches — Jean-Paul Sartre, Being and Nothingness: An Essay on…, 576; The For-itself necessarily exists in three ekstatic dimensions of not-being itself. — Jean-Paul Sartre, Being and Nothingness: An Essay on…, 474 (+1 more)
