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
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
diversity and plurality

“Join us to create more diversity and plurality in knowledge production.”

Gisela Febel
limits

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