The attempt to " ground the meaning relations constitutive of the world in an instance that itself lies outside all relationality " was referred to by Heidegger as logocentrism, and Derrida argues that the philosophical enterprise is " essentially " logocentric, and that this is a paradigm inherited from Judaism and mind / body ), and that any text contains implicit hierarchies, " by which an order is imposed on reality and by which a subtle repression is exercised, as these hierarchies exclude, subordinate, and hide the various potential meanings . " Derrida refers to his procedure for uncovering and unsettling these dichotomies as deconstruction of Western culture.
