Contradiction Studies

Putting contradiction center stage, this series aims at challenging simplistic conceptualizations of the contradictive. The series editors agree that contradictions are not necessarily about being resolved but that they rather provide starting points for polyphonic conversations.

Brühne, Julia, Yan Suarsana & Ingo H. Warnke

every day

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

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

diversity and plurality

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

city

“The city is a laboratory not only of modernity, but also of contradiction.”
Julia Lossau

ideal of a contradiction-free world

“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
