    hierarchy of norms

    “If social contradictions are reflected in law, law cannot form a hierarchy of norms free of contradictions.”

    Andreas Fischer-Lescano
    sustained engagement

    “The history of Western philosophy can be understood as a sustained engagement with contradiction.”

    Norman Sieroka
    prison of difference

    “‘Contradiction is the prison of difference‘ writes the French philosopher Gilles Deleuze. Worlds of Contradiction asks: how can we explain and describe the world without making it more coherent and systematic than it is?”

    Michi Knecht
    driver

    “Contradictions are an important driver of scientific practice and knowledge.”

    Norman Sieroka
    limits

    “Resistance is a democratic right, sometimes a duty. With literature we can find models for this right and think about its limits.”

    Gisela Febel
