  1. deconstructionist

    A deconstructionist is someone who follows, advocates or applies deconstruction, a theory and approach towards understanding the relationship between text and meaning developed by philosopher Jacques Derrida. Deconstructionists believe that meaning is never fixed or stable, but rather is always shifting and subjective. They often analyze texts (literary, philosophical, social etc.) to expose assumptions, contradictions and underlying biases, and challenge established structures, norms and systems.
