hierarchy of norms

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

Andreas Fischer-Lescano

“The imperative of non-contradiction generally produces a coherence in thought that is often at odds with social complexities.”

Yan Suarsana

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

Gisela Febel

“According to Niklas Luhmann, space is a ‘special facility to negate contradictions’”.

Julia Lossau
