<p><b>Post-structuralism</b> is a philosophical movement that questions the objectivity or stability of the various interpretive structures that are posited by <a href="Structuralism" title="Structuralism">structuralism</a> and considers them to be constituted by broader systems of <a href="Power_(social_and_political)" title="Power (social and political)">power</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Although different post-structuralists present different critiques of structuralism, common themes include the rejection of the self-sufficiency of structuralism, as well as an interrogation of the <a href="Binary_opposition" title="Binary opposition">binary oppositions</a> that constitute its structures. Accordingly, post-structuralism discards the idea of interpreting media (or the world) within pre-established, socially constructed structures.<sup id="cite_ref-Bensmaia05_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Bensmaia05-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-Poster88_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Poster88-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-Merquior1987_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Merquior1987-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p><i>Structuralism</i> proposes that human <a href="Culture" title="Culture">culture</a> can be understood by means of a <a href="Structural_linguistics" title="Structural linguistics">structure that is modeled on language</a>. As a result, there is concrete <a href="Reality" title="Reality">reality</a> on the one hand, abstract <a href="Idea" title="Idea">ideas</a> about reality on the other hand, and a "third order" that mediates between the two.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>A post-structuralist response, then, might suggest that in order to build meaning out of such an interpretation, one must (falsely) assume that the definitions of these signs are both valid and fixed, and that the author employing structuralist theory is somehow above and apart from these structures they are describing so as to be able to wholly appreciate them. The rigidity and tendency to categorize intimations of universal truths found in structuralist thinking is a common target of post-structuralist thought, while also building upon structuralist conceptions of reality mediated by the interrelationship between signs.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>Writers whose works are often characterised as post-structuralist include <a href="Roland_Barthes" title="Roland Barthes">Roland Barthes</a>, <a href="Jacques_Derrida" title="Jacques Derrida">Jacques Derrida</a>, <a href="Michel_Foucault" title="Michel Foucault">Michel Foucault</a>, <a href="Gilles_Deleuze" title="Gilles Deleuze">Gilles Deleuze</a>, and <a href="Jean_Baudrillard" title="Jean Baudrillard">Jean Baudrillard</a>, although many theorists who have been called "post-structuralist" have rejected the label.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<p>Post-structuralism emerged in <a href="France" title="France">France</a> during the 1960s as a movement critiquing <a href="Structuralism" title="Structuralism">structuralism</a>. According to <a href="Jos%C3%A9_Guilherme_Merquior" title="José Guilherme Merquior">J.&nbsp;G. Merquior</a>, a <a href="Love%E2%80%93hate_relationship" title="Love–hate relationship">love–hate relationship</a> with structuralism developed among many leading French thinkers in the 1960s.<sup id="cite_ref-Merquior1987_4-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Merquior1987-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The period was marked by the rebellion of students and workers against the state in <a href="May_1968_events_in_France" class="mw-redirect" title="May 1968 events in France">May 1968</a>.
</p><p>In a 1966 lecture titled "<a href="Structure%2C_Sign%2C_and_Play_in_the_Discourse_of_the_Human_Sciences" title="Structure, Sign, and Play in the Discourse of the Human Sciences">Structure, Sign, and Play in the Discourse of the Human Sciences</a>", <a href="Jacques_Derrida" title="Jacques Derrida">Jacques Derrida</a> presented a thesis on an apparent rupture in intellectual life. Derrida interpreted this event as a "decentering" of the former intellectual cosmos. Instead of progress or divergence from an identified centre, Derrida described this "event" as a kind of "play."
</p><p>A year later, in 1967, <a href="Roland_Barthes" title="Roland Barthes">Roland Barthes</a> published "<a href="The_Death_of_the_Author" title="The Death of the Author">The Death of the Author</a>", in which he announced a metaphorical event: the "death" of the author as an authentic source of meaning for a given text. Barthes argued that any literary text has multiple meanings and that the author was not the prime source of the work's semantic content. The "Death of the Author," Barthes maintained, was the "Birth of the Reader," as the source of the proliferation of meanings of the text.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<p>In <i><a href="Elements_of_Semiology" title="Elements of Semiology">Elements of Semiology</a></i> (1967), Barthes advances the concept of the <i><a href="Metalanguage" title="Metalanguage">metalanguage</a></i>, a systematized way of talking about concepts like meaning and grammar beyond the constraints of a traditional (first-order) language; in a metalanguage, symbols replace words and phrases. Insofar as one metalanguage is required for one explanation of the first-order language, another may be required, so metalanguages may actually replace first-order languages. Barthes exposes how this structuralist system is regressive; orders of language rely upon a metalanguage by which it is explained, and therefore <a href="Deconstruction" title="Deconstruction">deconstruction</a> itself is in danger of becoming a metalanguage, thus exposing all languages and discourse to scrutiny. Barthes' other works contributed deconstructive theories about texts.

<p>The occasional designation of post-structuralism as a movement can be tied to the fact that mounting criticism of Structuralism became evident at approximately the same time that Structuralism became a topic of interest in universities in the United States. This interest led to a colloquium at <a href="Johns_Hopkins_University" title="Johns Hopkins University">Johns Hopkins University</a> in 1966 titled "The Languages of Criticism and the Sciences of Man", to which such French philosophers as <a href="Jacques_Derrida" title="Jacques Derrida">Jacques Derrida</a>, <a href="Roland_Barthes" title="Roland Barthes">Roland Barthes</a>, and <a href="Jacques_Lacan" title="Jacques Lacan">Jacques Lacan</a> were invited to speak.
</p><p>Derrida's lecture at that conference, "<a href="Structure%2C_Sign%2C_and_Play_in_the_Discourse_of_the_Human_Sciences" title="Structure, Sign, and Play in the Discourse of the Human Sciences">Structure, Sign, and Play in the Human Sciences</a>", was one of the earliest to propose some theoretical limitations to Structuralism, and to attempt to theorize on terms that were clearly no longer structuralist.
</p><p>The element of "play" in the title of Derrida's essay is often erroneously interpreted in a linguistic sense, based on a general tendency towards puns and humour, while <a href="Social_constructionism" title="Social constructionism">social constructionism</a> as developed in the later work of <a href="Michel_Foucault" title="Michel Foucault">Michel Foucault</a> is said to create play in the sense of strategic agency by laying bare the levers of historical change.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Post-structuralism_and_structuralism">Post-structuralism and structuralism</h2></div>
<p><a href="Structuralism" title="Structuralism">Structuralism</a>, as an intellectual movement in France in the 1950s and 1960s, studied underlying structures in <a href="Cultural_artifact" title="Cultural artifact">cultural products</a> (such as <a href="Text_(literary_theory)" title="Text (literary theory)">texts</a>) and used analytical concepts from <a href="Linguistics" title="Linguistics">linguistics</a>, <a href="Psychology" title="Psychology">psychology</a>, <a href="Anthropology" title="Anthropology">anthropology</a>, and other fields to <a href="Interpretation_(disambiguation)" class="mw-redirect mw-disambig" title="Interpretation (disambiguation)">interpret</a> those structures. Structuralism posits the concept of <a href="Binary_opposition" title="Binary opposition">binary opposition</a>, in which frequently-used pairs of opposite-but-related words (concepts) are often arranged in a hierarchy; for example: <a href="Age_of_Enlightenment" title="Age of Enlightenment">Enlightenment</a>/<a href="Romanticism" title="Romanticism">Romantic</a>, male/female, speech/writing, rational/emotional, signified/signifier, symbolic/imaginary, and east/west.
</p><p>Post-structuralism rejects the structuralist notion that the dominant word in a pair is dependent on its <a href="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/subservient" class="extiw external" title="wikt:subservient">subservient</a> counterpart, and instead argues that founding knowledge on either pure experience (<a href="Phenomenology_(philosophy)" title="Phenomenology (philosophy)">phenomenology</a>) or on <a href="System" title="System">systematic</a> structures (structuralism) is impossible,<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> because history and culture actually condition the study of underlying structures, and these are subject to biases and misinterpretations. <a href="Gilles_Deleuze" title="Gilles Deleuze">Gilles Deleuze</a> and others saw this impossibility not as a failure or loss, but rather as a cause for "celebration and liberation."<sup id="cite_ref-Colebrook_11-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Colebrook-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> A post-structuralist approach argues that to understand an object (a text, for example), one must study both the object itself and the <a href="System" title="System">systems</a> of knowledge that produced the object.<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The uncertain boundaries between structuralism and post-structuralism become further blurred by the fact that scholars rarely label themselves as post-structuralists. Some scholars associated with structuralism, such as <a href="Roland_Barthes" title="Roland Barthes">Roland Barthes</a> and <a href="Michel_Foucault" title="Michel Foucault">Michel Foucault</a>, also became noteworthy in post-structuralism.<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
