“The city is a laboratory not only of modernity, but also of contradiction.”
Julia Lossau
“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
“Contradiction is not primarily a problem to be solved but a motor we cannot do without.”
Martin Nonhoff
“The basis of law is not an idea as a systematic unified principle but a paradox.”
Andreas Fischer-Lescano
“Homi Bhabha says about the contradiction between the ideals of the enlightenment, claims to democracy and solidarity and simultaneous colonization and ongoing coloniality: ‘That ideological tension, visible in the history of the West as a despotic power, at the very moment of the birth of democracy and modernity, has not been adequately written in a contradictory and contrapuntal discourse of tradition.’”
