Lecture as part of the Colloquium Contradiction Studies
decolonial scholarship
“Creating decentralizing and decolonizing scholarship on contradiction, contradictory phenomena, and contradicting processes is a challenging task.”
Kerstin Knopf
every day
“Living in contradictions is what we experience every day. Why do we know so little about it?”
Gisela Febel
coherence in thought
“The imperative of non-contradiction generally produces a coherence in thought that is often at odds with social complexities.”
Yan Suarsana
articulate
“Contradictions need to be articulated in order to exist.”
Martin Nonhoff
relational
“At first I thought contradiction was always a relational thing; but the more I ponder it, the more I think contradiction creates relation.”
