Deconstructionism explained

A school of thought and a set of methods for analyzing texts that try to figure out the assumptions and ideas that people think and believe are true. It is also called “deconstruction,” and its main goal is a radical critique of the metaphysics of the Western philosophical tradition.

It does this by pointing out logocentrism or “metaphysics of presence,” which says that speech-thought (the logos) is a privileged, ideal, and self-present entity from which all discourse and meaning come. The main goal of deconstruction is to get rid of this logocentrism.
