Post Structuralism
Post Structuralism (1968-1999), was a set of theories that were a reaction to Structuralist thought. With the influence of Derrida, Foucault and Deleuze a language based system was born from these philosophical stances. In opposition to Structuralism, thought changed to it is the texture not just the text; anything can mean anything. “A” no longer just means “A”, it can also mean “B”, “C”, “D”, etc. Henri Lefebvre states that “a specific or indefinite multiplicity of meanings, a shifted hierarchy in which now one, now another meanings comes momentarily to the fore, by means of – and for the sake of – a particular action”. In the theory of language we see that text is an element of how we understand meanings. The meaning of text depends directly upon the texture. As Fredric Jameson points out, we can not remove ourselves from the fabric of society so we can not fully understand the “truth” of an object. This non-objective understanding of space points out a power struggle between the dominance of history and the present. Since there is no truth in the object, the space becomes powerful in defining what the object means. This approach depends highly on society and how space is perceived.
