JACQUES DERRIDA (1930-2004) was an Algerian-born French philosopher best known for developing a form of semiotic analysis known as deconstruction, which he discussed in numerous texts.  While his approach to philosophy and the notorious difficulty of his work made him controversial, he is one of the major figures associated with post-structuralism and postmodern philosophy.

Derrida had a significant influence upon the humanities and social sciences, including -- in addition to philosophy and literature -- law, anthropology, historiography, linguistics, sociolinguistics, psychoanalysis, political theory, religious studies, feminism, and gay and lesbian studies.  His work still has a major influence in the academe of Continental Europe, South America and all other countries where continental philosophy is predominant, particularly in debates around ontology, epistemology (especially concerning social sciences), ethics, aesthetics, hermeneutics, and the philosophy of language.  He also influenced architecture (in the form of deconstructivism), music, art, and art criticism.
