deconstruction
(en)
(noun) a philosophical or critical method which asserts that meanings, metaphysical constructs, and hierarchical oppositions (as between key terms in a philosophical or literary work) are always rendered unstable by their dependence on ultimately arbitrary signifiers
Again, there is a gap opened up between the claim to truth and the way in which the text deconstructs that claim as a merely rhetorical or post hoc rationalization
