“The city is a laboratory not only of modernity, but also of contradiction.”
Julia Lossau
“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
“Is contradiction a eurocentric concept, operational phenomenon, and instrument of power?”
Kerstin Knopf
“Science has long been animated by the ideal of a contradiction-free world in which logical orders could merge with society, politics, culture and language. In the GRC Contradiction Studies we are working on ways of describing the multiplicity and complexity, the danger and beauty of our worlds that clearly go beyond concepts of freedom from contradiction.”
Michi Knecht
“Contradictions are an important driver of scientific practice and knowledge.”
Norman Sieroka
