Hur ser Sartre på moral och etik?
Enligt Sartre fanns ingen moral som gällde alla eftersom var och en råder över sitt eget liv och vad hon anser moraliskt rätt eller fel. Men frihet medför också att man tar sig friheten att ge utlopp för sina kontrollbehov över andra. Sartre menade att om man gör andra till ting och vill styra dem så blir man sadist.
