The Deconstruction in Jacques Derrida: What It Is and It Is Not as a Strategy
##plugins.themes.bootstrap3.article.details##
Deconstruction must be understood, we contend, as the attempt to “account”, in a certain manner, for a heterogeneous variety or manifold of non-logical contradictions and discursive inequalities of all sorts that continues to haunt and fissure even the successful development of philosophical arguments and their systematic exposition. There is not in deconstruction a doctrine, a philosophy, a method. According to Derrida, it is only a “strategy” of decomposition to the Occidental metaphysics. Meanwhile, deconstruction accounts for these constitutive “contradictions” through the construction of arche-syntheses, or infrastructures, as we will call them hereafter. As long as its goal is believed to promote the above- mentioned licentious free play, nihilistic canceling out of opposites, abolition of hierarchies, and demystification or deideologization of Western philosophemes, deconstruction´s definite and logical procedure cannot be grasped in all its specificity.
