This paper compares and contrasts the philosophical anthropology of Sartre with Marx. In Sartre's opinion, every significant era in history is characterized by some pre-dominant philosophies or views of the world which enable one to extract and come to know current social and historical realities. According to Sartre, Marxism is a social philosophy which reflects modern knowledge, while existentialism is only a parasitic system which exists on the edge of the modern knowledge that is Marxism. However, because the purpose of orthodox Marxism (especially the Soviet notion of “construction of socialism in one country”) is to maintain the achievements of the revolution, this results in a regression in the practice of the theory. Man becomes an object of revolutionary philosophy and is requested to fill some specific social roles in realizing revolutionary philosophy's goal of state-building. Marxism has already degenerated into a voluntarist idealism. Sartre believes the core of Marxism seeks justification of a concrete lifestyle. Consequently, if we are to recover Marxism, the fundamental method should be to reconstruct Marxist philosophical anthropology. Seeking the meaning of man's being is the task of existentialism. The purpose of this paper is to probe and criticize whether or not Sartre's use of existential philosophical anthropology in supplementing Marxism is consistent with Marx's own view of philosophical anthropology.
