In recent years, calls for a new humanism have arisen from a
variety of voices across the spectrum of philosophy, expressing
frustration with outdated models of the human that cannot account
for the richness of our social being. The postmodern deconstruction
of the human now requires a reconstructive moment. In response, the
author articulates a new and explicitly posthumanist humanism using
the framework developed by Jean-Paul Sartre in his later
Marxist-Existentialist works. Sartre's unique dialectical and
hermeneutical methods allow us to reconceptualize the human beyond
traditional dichotomies of individual/social and freedom/necessity.
The author argues that the individual and the social should be
understood as existing within a dynamic, co-constituting
interrelation, and that individual autonomy is not at odds with,
but rather fundamentally enabled by, the social.
