For empirical research in the social and cultural sciences and humanities, research data and materials are often both a starting point and a result of research projects. The (long-term) storage and sharing of these research materials within the scientific community does not only increase transparency and comprehensibility of research but also allows to re-use these materials using other research methods or posing other research questions. This applies in particular to data and materials from qualitative research, as these materials are often particularly comprehensive, complex, and information-rich, thus allowing various kinds of re-use. On the other hand, due to the sensitivity and complexity of these materials, sharing and re-using qualitative research materials is still rare.

Grenzen

„Widerstand ist ein demokratisches Recht, manchmal sogar eine Pflicht. Mit der Literatur können wir dafür Modelle finden und über Grenzen nachdenken.“

ein (aufzu)lösendes Problem

„Widerspruch ist oft nicht primär ein (aufzu)lösendes Problem, sondern eine Antriebskraft, ohne die es nicht geht.“

Martin Nonhoff
Ist Widerspruch eurozentrisch?

„Ist Widerspruch ein eurozentrisches Konzept, operatives Phänomen und Machtinstrument?“

Raum

„Mit Niklas Luhmann kann man Raum als ‚Sondereinrichtung zur Negation von Widersprüchen‘ begreifen.“

Julia Lossau
Afterlife of colonialism

“Contradiction comes in many different forms. None is so debilitating than when the coloniser transitions, textually not politically, to decoloniality without taking the responsibility for the afterlife of colonialism, which they continue to benefit from. Self-examination and self-interrogation of the relations of coloniality, a necessity, seem nearly impossible for the coloniser who continues to act as beneficiary, masked in the new-found language of White fragility, devoid of an ethical responsibility of the very system of White domination they claim to be against.” (Black Consciousness and the Politics of the Flesh)
