The idea of a cognitive dissonance is rooted in the idea of a "self". It's the conflict of two ideas that a "self" holds, and which acts upon a "self" to cause distress or disharmony. If you were to look at this more pluralistically, you might say that these contradictions are products of a world that is systemic (made up of interlinking, pluralistic systems).
