Post-structuralism

PHILOSOPHY OF... ROLAND BARTHES: GILLES DELEUZE: JEAN BAUDRILLARD: POST-STRUCTURALISM IS A TERM FOR PHILOSOPHICAL, THEORETICAL AND LITERARY FORMS OF THEORY THAT BOTH BUILD UPON AND REJECT IDEAS ESTABLISHED BY STRUCTURALISM, THE INTELLECTUAL PROJECT THAT PRECEDED IT. THOUGH POST-STRUCTURALISTS ALL PRESENT DIFFERENT CRITIQUES OF STRUCTURALISM, COMMON THEMES AMONG THEM INCLUDE THE REJECTION OF THE SELF-SUFFICIENCY OF STRUCTURALISM, AS WELL AS AN INTERROGATION OF THE BINARY OPPOSITIONS THAT CONSTITUTE ITS STRUCTURES. ACCORDINGLY, POST-STRUCTURALISM DISCARDS THE IDEA OF INTERPRETING MEDIA (OR THE WORLD) WITHIN PRE-ESTABLISHED, SOCIALLY-CONSTRUCTED STRUCTURES. #historyandphilosophy #poststructuralism #philosophy #innabesedina #selfdevelopment #education #selfeducation #barthes #derrida #governmentality
