| description | The concept of Derrida’s deconstruction is generally misunderstood and there are not many scholars that succeed to come to its true understanding. It is defined usually as a destructive criticism of philosophical texts and this is obvious in Persian translations of this term. Of course, there is some kind of truth in this conception but the more important part of truth is missed in it. In this essay, we propose this claim that deconstruction is not a method or a theory, but a strategy and an act. Also we claim that deconstruction is not just negative and a powerful positive aspect can be found in it. Then, we will try to examine and prove these claims with reference to Derrida’s works and his commentators. Finally, we will conclude that the act of deconstruction is not a theory about texts and unrelated to exterior reality. It is an ethical attitude towards the world. Deconstructive knowledge would change our active attitude towards the world and our life strategy. |
