Features: In the 1960s, the French philosopher Jacques Derrida founded "Deconstructionism." Deconstructionism argues that since Plato, "metaphysics" has formed a potential pattern: there is a fundamental principle behind everything, which is akin to "the law of God," and deviating from it means heading towards error. Deconstructionism is the act of breaking this dominant order, a rebellion against "structuralism" or traditional philosophy. Derrida's theories shook the foundations of the entire traditional humanities and are also one of the most important theoretical sources of the entire postmodern. The author of this book engages in a virtual dialogue with the late Derrida, delving deeply into Derrida's deconstructive thought, analyzing his ideas from philosophy to literature, from linguistics to law, making it a powerful work of analysis on Derrida's thought.
