city

“The city is a laboratory not only of modernity, but also of contradiction.”

Julia Lossau
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
problem to be solved

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

Martin Nonhoff
every day

“Living in contradictions is what we experience every day. Why do we know so little about it?”

Gisela Febel
articulate

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

Martin Nonhoff
