The group in Sartre mirrors individual consciousness as an ontological failure

Evidence

Clarifying Sartre’s considered view of freedom proves diffi cult, since Sartre’s analysis spreads out over several hundred pages and suff ers from various inconsistencies, some real and others only apparent. Sartre’s initial analysis of limitation occurs in Part III, chapter 1, but rather suddenly disappears for some two hundred pages until Part IV, where Sartre examines interiorization— the process of internalizing social objectifi cations into one’s projects. — Christine Daigle, Jacob Golomb (eds.), Beauvoir and Sartre, 212 (#complicates, via linked claim)
