“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
“‘Contradiction is the prison of difference‘ writes the French philosopher Gilles Deleuze. Worlds of Contradiction asks: how can we explain and describe the world without making it more coherent and systematic than it is?”
Michi Knecht
“The city is a laboratory not only of modernity, but also of contradiction.”
Julia Lossau
“Is contradiction a eurocentric concept, operational phenomenon, and instrument of power?”
Kerstin Knopf
“The imperative of non-contradiction generally produces a coherence in thought that is often at odds with social complexities.”
