Simply put, a Subversion of Deconstruction. Some works deconstruct a Trope, whereas others reconstruct them. Some do both at the same time. This trope applies to works in which a trope or genre is deconstructed, but later reconstructed. This can take place over a short period of time, where there is an immediate Reconstruction of a deconstructed trope, or it can be long and drawn out, where a trope is initially deconstructed, and then reconstructed later on. May be paired with Cerebus Rollercoaster. Examples of Decon Recon Switch include:

  • Simply put, a Subversion of Deconstruction. Some works deconstruct a Trope, whereas others reconstruct them. Some do both at the same time. This trope applies to works in which a trope or genre is deconstructed, but later reconstructed. This can take place over a short period of time, where there is an immediate Reconstruction of a deconstructed trope, or it can be long and drawn out, where a trope is initially deconstructed, and then reconstructed later on. This trope can be an author's way of adding new complexity to the genre he/she is working in. For example, take the Princess Classic. A work employing this trope would take a Princess Classic, say, "guys, it wouldn't really work this way, but here's how it would work out." Using the examples from the Deconstruction and Reconstruction pages, in a work applying this trope to the Princess Classic, the Princess' monarchy might initially find itself in dire straits, with an oppressive Prince Charming, but by the end of the story a constitutional monarchy has been put into place. A Trapped in TV Land plot might start with characters engaged in Conversational Troping about the silly things that happen in the Show Within a Show, only to do the exact same things when they find themselves a part of the show's world. Lightly based on Hegelian dialectic- the thesis (the trope), the antithesis (the Deconstruction), and the synthesis (Reconstruction and a changed trope.) May be paired with Cerebus Rollercoaster. You should probably expect a lot of SPOILERS the page below, since they often detail the swerves a work makes over its run. Examples of Decon Recon Switch include:
