... Structure, Sign and Play in the Discourse of the Human Sciences
In “Structure, Sign and Play”, Derrida challenges the concept of the structure being structured, which presumably can be understood and has a logical and independent closure on its own. He argues that this concept of structure does not and cannot lead logically into the concept of play where there is restriction even as the structure of play is being formed. He suggests that the entire concept of structure, and of giving and associating meaning, is in itself repressive in nature.
