Anti Platonism Châtelet was also a co founder of the influential French political philosophy journal Arguments. he relocated to Lille to complete his secondary studies. After graduating with his Baccalauréat in 1943, he returned to Paris to enroll at the Sorbonne, where he was a student of the philosopher Gaston Bachelard. It was during this time that he became acquainted with the works of Karl Marx, and the Vietnamese Marxist philosopher and phenomenologist Tran Duc Thao. Finding further inspiration in Jean Paul Sartre's L'Imaginaire, Châtelet entered a period of what he referred to as "Hegelo Marxist Existentialism." putting up posters and distributing leaflets – some of which had Trotskyist undertones – around the Lycées at which he studied. A member of the Communist Party of France, he withdrew from the party in 1956 in response to the Soviet invasion of Hungary, and actively campaigned for the decolonization of the Maghreb during his time teaching there. Along with Michel Foucault and Gilles Deleuze, he is one of the founders of the department of philosophy at the The University of Paris, Vincennes, which was established in the aftermath of the May, 1968 student protests across France, and was later relocated from Vincennes to the northern Parisian commune of Saint Denis. Along with Jean Pierre Vernant, he and joined the department of philosophy at the University of São Paulo in 1971 as a form of protest to Brazilian military government's imprisonment of most of the department's faculty. In 1983, he co founded the Collège international de philosophie (International College of Philosophy), which is described as being at “the forefront of militant and engaged critical thinking,” and has sought to “relocate philosophy at the intersection of science, politics, psychoanalysis, art and literature, jurisprudence, and economy.” Châtelet's philosophy links thought and action, engaging in a restless combat with his contemporaries. He also taught in high schools and pre university classes throughout his career, and occasionally participated in the seminars of Gilles Deleuze, with whom he was close friends. In 2023, his work appeared in English translation for the first time with a translation of his "Classical Greece, Reason, and the State" by Adam E. Foster in volume 38 of Parrhesia: A Journal of Critical Philosophy.

François Châtelet married his first wife, Janine Marie Mathon, in 1948 while living in Oran. The two would divorce in June, 1957. In December, 1968, he married Noëlle Jospin, whose brother Lionel Jospin would serve as Prime Minister of France between 1997 and 2002 during the presidency of Jacques Chirac. The two remained married for the rest of Châtelet's life. Together, they had a son, Antoine.
