Abstract
This study utilizes Derridian deconstruction to subvert the hierarchy order that Habermas posits between communicative and strategic utterances, thus positing strategic utterances as reflective the fundamental structures of language. In so doing, Habermas’s and Derrida’s respective texts are posited as expatriates within the foreign body of this document, thereby demonstrating the intercultural challenges of linguistic communication and structure of linguistic meanings (identities) explored through this text.
