Abstract

In 1992, Derrida re-examine the aftermath of "deconstruction" of history, that once déconstruction in the early French word that already exist, while translation of two concepts: Freud's and Heidegger's Destruktion Dissociation. In doing so, he re-affirmed the deconstruction of Heidegger and Freud with the idea of debt relationships, and deconstruction of these two ideas in turn. Although similar on the surface and deep inheritance, after all, deconstruction, "not" psychoanalytic. It is the spirit of the analysis of the resistance. But it is such resistance to making the relationship between deconstruction and the fate of psychoanalysis are inextricably linked. Derrida has always dreamed of resistance. He asked himself whether this resistance, such as Freud said dreams have a navel? This dream is for the resistance encountered also do not want to untie a knot points? In "resist> a text, Derrida attempts to analyze, to psychoanalysis, and psychoanalysis for philosophical analysis of resistance to this dream and tangled. As he admits, strangely, Derrida seems quite similar to those analyzed in an "unfinished almost self-analysis" . Difficult to understand why Derrida calls this "almost self-analysis," because the analysis of resistance, as well as Freudian psychoanalysis, especially for heroic resistance, the achievements of Derrida deconstructed industrial base. But why is "unfinished, unfinished," the almost self-analysis? Derrida's analysis of these final, in the last analysis, is also encountered a difficulty, and do not want to unlock the navel? Derrida says of a "weaver's another secret"? In 1992, retroactively reexamining the history of "deconstruction," Derrida indicates that with déconstruction, an existent term in French, he has translated two concepts at one time: Heidegger's Destruktion and Freud's Dissociation. Thus he re-affirms the debts of deconstruction to Heidegger's and Freud's heritages, as well as its turn to them. Despite their apparent resemblance and profound relationship of heritage, "deconstruction" is not psychoanalysis after all. It is resistance to psychoanalysis, but the very resistance inseparably binds their destiny together. Derrida has always dreamed of resistance. He asks himself whether this dream of resistance has a navel as Freud said. Dose this dream of resistance also encounter a tangle which cannot be unravelled? In his article 'Resistances', Derrida attempts to analyse and psychoanalyse the dream and the tangle of resistance to philosophical analysis and psychoanalysis. As he confesses, uncannily, his analysis seems a "failed quasi-auto-analysis" . It is not difficult to understand why Derrida calls it "quasi-self -analysis, "because its resistance to analysis, especially the heroic resistance to Freudian psychoanalysis, amounts to the foundation of Derridian deconstructive industry. Yet why is it" unfinished, unaccomplished "? Does Derrida's analysis, at the end of analysis, also ends up encountering a tangle which cannot be unraveled, as what Derrida calls "the other secret of the weaver"?
