The article examines Sartre's understanding of the internal meaning of group violence, and in particular the role of violence in forming the group's collective personality. The pledge creates the justification for internal terror; through the group, the ‘origin of humanity’ emerges and a ‘common freedom’ is realized. For Sartre, there is no substitute for the creative function of violence
