ABSTRACT
Judith Butler’s gender performativity theory has blended thoughts such as Austin’s and Searle’s speech act theory, Derrida’s deconstructivism and Bourdieu’s economics of linguistic exchanges, and thus contains rich thoughts of speech act theory. With her efforts, the gender performativity theory has been uplifted to the fields of politics, culture, society, and power critique, including abundant thoughts of constructivism theory.
