Abstract
In this paper, Sartre’s ontology is regarded as a precedent of the current political philosophers who state the impossibility of a being-in-common. In this sense they all distance themselves from Hegel and Heidegger, except that the thinkers of the impossible community cannot avoid speculating about death even if they deny that it has any sense. For Sartre though, the incompatibility between death and the freedom to exist remain essential, as well as a defense of realism. Moreover, this paper traces Sartre’s concept of the real and both his tendency and opposition to materialism.

No en vano calificó él de ensayo a su obra principal: El ser y la nada
En la medida en que, sin ignorar esto último, Sartre excluye la muerte –definida como acontecimiento– de las estructuras ontológicas del para-sí, su ontología, facturada por el maestro Heidegger a la “historia de la metafísica” (más oportuna considero la formulación de Derrida: “metafísica de la presencia”), no encaja en el esquema con que la Carta sobre el humanismo desacredita la metafísica, pues Sartre no busca la esencia humana en la “animalidad”
