Streit als Chance? Kommunikative Praktiken des Streitens als Vehikel sozialer Aushandlung

ThemaTalkers (academic collective of lecturers and students from U Bremen, U Vienna and Åbo Akademi)

06/14/2024 06/15/2024

U Bremen, U Vienna & online

The conference has an interdisciplinary focus, which is why the lectures will be held from the fields of linguistics and literary studies, cultural studies and educational science, among others.

As this is a student conference, the presentations will be given exclusively by students and PhD students. The lectures are open to all interested parties.

The aims of the conference are: to recognize the complexity of ‘dispute’, to highlight ‘dispute’ as a productive social practice and the importance of ‘dispute’ for society, and to promote a multidimensional and multidisciplinary understanding of ‘dispute’. The lectures will be given by students and PhD students from all over the world.

Prof. Dr. Ingo H. Warnke (speaker of the GRK) will give a word of greeting and moderate the first keynote. Jonas Trochemowitz (Associate PhD student) will give a talk.

articulate

“Contradictions need to be articulated in order to exist.”

Martin Nonhoff
interstice

“The contradiction of law in Derrida lies in the interstice that separates the impossibility of deconstructing justice from the possibility of deconstructing law.”

Andreas Fischer-Lescano
Is contradiction eurocentric?

“Is contradiction a eurocentric concept, operational phenomenon, and instrument of power?”

Kerstin Knopf
problem to be solved

“Contradiction is not primarily a problem to be solved but a motor we cannot do without.”

Martin Nonhoff
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?”
