Jacques Derrida (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy)

Jacques Derrida (1930-2004) was the founder of "deconstruction," a way of criticizing not only both literary and philosophical texts but also political institutions. Although Derrida at times expressed regret concerning the fate of the word "deconstruction," its popularity indicates the wide-ranging influence of his thought, in philosophy, in literary criticism and theory, in art and, in particular, architectural theory, and in political theory.
