Regenerative critique requires fissures outside a culture’s central paradigm

Evidence

What the present book attempts to show, by contrast, is that regenerative critique demands extraparadigmatic fissures and openings, ones relegated to the peripheral domains—precisely because they are either irrelevant or antithetical to the central domains. Thus, nonparadigmatic “openings, cracks, fissures, and fractures” would give critique a wholly different meaning and quality. — Wael Hallaq, Restating Orientalism, 563
