	'''Deconstructionism''' is a type of [[literary criticism]], or perhaps a philosophical approach to criticism, which involves analyzing cultural products ("reading a text") such as a novel and ''deconstructing'' the assumptions and beliefs that make up both the way the text was created, and the way the text is received. The former might be considered a type of contextualization; the latter is related to [[audience studies]].

			Deconstructionism is strongly tied to the work of [[Jacques Derrida]], and has been followed by numerous scholars including the "Yale School" (Paul de Man, Geoffrey Hartman, J. Hillis Miller), [[Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak]], etc, etc. Although in theory deconstruction can be applied to any text, and has influenced certain schools of literary/film/etc. criticism, it is best known for its application to key texts of philosophy and social sciences (anthropology and psychology). Derrida famously deconstructed Claude Levi-Strauss, for instance, in ''Of Grammatology'', a study of which is common in academic literary criticism programs.

			Deconstruction has been significant to [[postcolonial studies]], [[postmodernism]], [[queer theory]], and [[audience theory]].
