Abstract
The 20th century existentialist Jean-Paul Satre asserts that man is nothing else but that which he makes of himself. There is no human nature because there is no God to have a conception of it. The bond among humans is the universality of condition, "all the limitations which a priori define man's fundamental situation in the universe." In some ways Sartre's position is not that different from Aristotle's. You start with the conditions you're given, you take a stand on life, and you determine much of your own nature.
