empirical environment and moral structures that might be considered as an ossified praxis (to use a concept from Being and Nothingness that was applied to street signs and such semiotic representations).

Individuals and concurrently concatenations of individuals known as groups may alter their ethical and moral codes yet that dialectical or interactive social reasoning yields a compresent moral environment that might be described by some interested, detached philosopher perhaps. Constructions and formalized moral systems may be compiled and adhered to by some or all of society. Subsets and opposition moral sets or paradigms may exists within cultures as subcultures, while individuals may even compile their own synthetic composite moral theory finding application of it's social applicability limited compared to the range of a more prevalent moral paradigm's effectiveness.

The critical junction for moral theory for existentialist investigation of epistemological theory subjectively is the problem of solipsism. One might not know the actual consciousness of an other yet one can still observe the empirical social relations and remark about how they exist in the ethical context and thereby develop a morality. Existentialism wasn't Sartre's own term for his philosophy of course; he believed it a continuation of French rationalism, and at some point because of phenomenal feedback from sense data it is practical for a philosopher of existentialism to develop a moral theory as well as he develops knowledge about serialized praxis queuing up for a bus and keeps a bus schedule in his pocket.
