Analysis
Analysis is the resolution of a thesis into its component concepts and interrelationships in order to reveal the nature and structure of the thesis (or argument) being proposed.
Analysis rarely rests at this point as it usually involves some kind of assessment of the adequacy of the concepts and structures used in the thesis. This leads on to, and merges with, criticism.
