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
Is contradiction eurocentric?
“Is contradiction a eurocentric concept, operational phenomenon, and instrument of power?”
Kerstin Knopf
