Martin Heidegger’s Being and Time has been repeatedly criticized for ignoring the social and ethical dimensions of human existence. After discussing the possibility of an “ethics of individuation” based on passages from The Fundamental Concepts of Metaphysics, I argue that Heidegger is not concerned with developing a social or moral philosophy as such but with the question of how individuation ...
