I concur 100%.
I think it would be interesting to read the different applications of deconstruction. It seems it means one thing in epistemology and a slightly different thing in political applications. It seems, from what I read above of political applications, that deconstruction is an intention in propoganda: write in such a way that you can worm yourself out if caught in a phrase. Whatever you do, write so that you cannot be pinned down. That kind of thinking gives me shivers as an initial reaction.
But really: In which fields is the term deconstruction used as a springboard to discussion, whether seriously entertained or used as a concept to reject? Which fields?
