'The One' / 'the They'
(German: Das Man, meaning They-Self)

One of the most interesting and important 'concepts' in Being and Time is that of Das Man, for which there is no exact English translation; different translations and commentators use different conventions. It is often translated as "the They" or "People" or "Anyone" but is more accurately translated as "One" (as in "'one' should always wear clean underwear"). Das Man derives from the impersonal singular pronoun man ('one', as distinct from 'I', or 'you', or 'he', or 'she', or 'they'). Both the German man and the English 'one' are neutral or indeterminate in respect of gender and, even, in a sense, of number, though both words suggest an unspecified, unspecifiable, indeterminate plurality.
Heidegger refers to this concept of the One in explaining inauthentic modes of existence, in which Dasein, instead of truly choosing to do something, does it only because "That is what one does" or "That is what people do". Thus, das Man is not a proper or measurable entity, but rather an amorphous part of social reality that functions effectively in the manner that it does through this intangibility.

O homem encobre aqueles condicionantes existenciais, - aquilo que ele de facto é -, entregando-se a uma rotina de superficialidades "públicas" na vida quotidiana. Não é então ninguém em particular; e uma estrutura que Heidegger chama das Man ("o eles ") é revelada, como uma tendência da alienação de si mesmo que leva o homem à tendência de se conhecer apenas através da comparação que faz de si mesmo com os outros indivíduos seus pares.
