It’s undeniable that the word Deconstrutcion is used frequently, and this phenomenon have two different situations, advocacy and the opposition. Presently, objection to deconstruction overwhelms the favor it receives, which consequently spreads the shortness and weakness of it, even in dramatic ways. However, reading the articles and books by the intellectuals who have committed themselves to the study of deconstruction usually results in a different, to be exact, a opposite conclusion. Is this because the researchers speak highly of their subject matter on purpose or because deconstruction put forward by Jacques Derrida is not so awful in itself? Bearing questions like this in mind and overcoming all kinds of difficulties, the author tries to get a better understanding of deconstructivism by means of reading books concerning it in the original as well as other material related, both similar and contrasting, to it diachronically and synchronically. With the possible new findings and conclusions as the research aim, the thesis focuses on three components, difference, becoming and ethical issues of deconstructivism. Difference is the most familiar one among the three factors while becoming is overlooked, due to the obviousness of the former, though it is the most important one. Underlining difference is just the strategy for deconstructionist to construct deconstructivism, whereas divergence and complexity is real the center and emphasis. Becoming is endowed with special meaning which can be reached by analyzing the becoming dimensions and the influences of deconstructivism itself. Under discussion is also the question concerning "what is created". In the final part of this dissertation, the ethical issues, the focus of Derrida’s declining life, are studied and defined more exactly. To be specifically studied are the questions like "What does Derrida mean by equaling deconstruction to justice?" and "How does Derrida deal with deconstruction and responsibility?" comparatively with the related thoughts from other moralists, which makes concepts such as ethic, especially the Hermeneutic Ethics clearer.
