    relational

    “At first I thought contradiction was always a relational thing; but the more I ponder it, the more I think contradiction creates relation.”

    Ingo H. Warnke
    idea of democratic critique

    “If you think that acts of contradicting someone always need to point to better solutions, you haven’t really understood the idea of democratic critique.”

    Martin Nonhoff
    ideal of a contradiction-free world

    “Science has long been animated by the ideal of a contradiction-free world in which logical orders could merge with society, politics, culture and language. In the GRC Contradiction Studies we are working on ways of describing the multiplicity and complexity, the danger and beauty of our worlds that clearly go beyond concepts of freedom from contradiction.”

    Michi Knecht
    l’illusion d’une unité

    “Foucault speaks of contradiction as l’illusion d’une unité.”

    Ingo H. Warnke
    paradox

    “The basis of law is not an idea as a systematic unified principle but a paradox.”

    Andreas Fischer-Lescano
