A principle that contradiction is not absolute but relative to a chosen framework. What seems contradictory in one logic may be perfectly consistent in another (e.g., dialetheism accepts some contradictions). The law emphasizes that contradiction is framework‑dependent, not a brute feature of reality.
Law of Relative Contradiction Example: “In classical physics, a particle cannot be in two places at once; in quantum mechanics, relative contradiction allows superposition. The contradiction is relative to the theoretical framework.”
