Prigogine/Stengers: The Laws of Fate (foedera fati)
Zitat
„As Serres points out, the infinite fall provides a model on which to base our conception of the natural genesis of the disturbance that causes things to be born. If the vertical fall were not disturbed ‚without reason‘ by the clinamen, which leads to encounters and associations between uniformly falling atoms, no nature could be created; all that would be reproduced would be the repetitive connection between equivalent causes and effects governed by the laws of fate (foedera fati).“ (p. 303) #Prigogine #Stengers #Serres #NaturalGenesis #clinamen #atom #LawsOfFate
