“Living in contradictions is what we experience every day. Why do we know so little about it?”
Gisela Febel
limits
“Resistance is a democratic right, sometimes a duty. With literature we can find models for this right and think about its limits.”
Gisela Febel
problem to be solved
“Contradiction is not primarily a problem to be solved but a motor we cannot do without.”
Martin Nonhoff
driver
“Contradictions are an important driver of scientific practice and knowledge.”
Norman Sieroka
earthing
“Geography as a discipline stands for a certain worlding, if not earthing, of contradiction, in both theoretical and pracitcal respect.”
