While the impact of digitalization on education was already a point of serious deliberation, the COVID-19 pandemic has expedited ongoing transitions. With 90% of the world’s student population having been impacted by national lockdowns—online learning has gone from being a luxury to a necessity, in a context where around 3.6 billion people are offline. As the impacts of the 4IR unfold alongside the current crisis, it is not enough for future policy pathways to prioritize educational attainment in the traditional sense; it is essential to reimagine education itself as well as its delivery entirely. Future policy narratives will need to evaluate the very process of learning and identify the ways in which technology can help reduce existing disparities and enhance digital access, literacy and fluency in a scalable manner. In this context, this chapter analyses the status quo of online learning in India and Germany. Drawing on the experiences of these two economies with distinct trajectories of digitalization, the chapter explores how new technologies intersect with traditional education and local sociocultural conditions. Further, the limitations and opportunities presented by dominant ed-tech models is critically analyzed against the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

For governments that run whole countries, this means asking all citizens for their views to consider their situations and needs. Organizations such as Africa's Voices Foundation, who want to facilitate communication between decision-makers and citizens of a country, have difficulty mediating between these groups. To enable understanding, statements need to be summarized and visualized. Accomplishing these goals in a way that does justice to the citizens' voices and situations proves challenging. Standard charts do not help this cause as they fail to create empathy for the people behind their graphical abstractions. Furthermore, these charts do not create trust in the data they are representing as there is no way to see or navigate back to the underlying code and the original data. To fulfill these functions, visualizations would highly benefit from interactions to explore the displayed data, which standard charts often only limitedly provide. To help improve the understanding of people's voices, we developed and categorized 80 ideas for new visualizations, new interactions, and better connections between different charts, which we present in this report. From those ideas, we implemented 10 prototypes and two systems that integrate different visualizations. We show that this integration allows consistent appearance and behavior of visualizations. The visualizations all share the same main concept: representing each individual with a single dot. To realize this idea, we discuss technologies that efficiently allow the rendering of a large number of these dots. With these visualizations, direct interactions with representations of individuals are achievable by clicking on them or by dragging a selection around them. This direct interaction is only possible with a bidirectional connection from the visualization to the data it displays. We discuss different strategies for bidirectional mappings and the trade-offs involved. Having unified behavior across visualizations enhances exploration. For our prototypes, that includes grouping, filtering, highlighting, and coloring of dots. Our prototyping work was enabled by the development environment Lively4. We explain which parts of Lively4 facilitated our prototyping process. Finally, we evaluate our approach to domain problems and our developed visualization concepts. Our work provides inspiration and a starting point for visualization development in this domain. Our visualizations can improve communication between citizens and their government and motivate empathetic decisions. Our approach, combining low-level entities to create visualizations, provides value to an explorative and empathetic workflow. We show that the design space for visualizing this kind of data has a lot of potential and that it is possible to combine qualitative and quantitative approaches to data analysis. N2 - Der noble Weg, Entscheidungen, die viele Menschen betreffen, zu begründen, besteht darin, diese Menschen nach ihrer Meinung zu fragen. Für Regierungen, die ganze Länder führen, bedeutet dies, alle Bürger nach ihrer Meinung zu fragen, um ihre Situationen und Bedürfnisse zu berücksichtigen. Organisationen wie die Africa's Voices Foundation, die die Kommunikation zwischen Entscheidungsträgern und Bürgern eines Landes erleichtern wollen, haben Schwierigkeiten, zwischen diesen Gruppen zu vermitteln. Um Verständnis zu ermöglichen, müssen die Aussagen zusammengefasst und visualisiert werden. Diese Ziele auf eine Weise zu erreichen, die den Stimmen und Situationen der Bürgerinnen und Bürger gerecht wird, erweist sich als Herausforderung. Standardgrafiken helfen dabei nicht weiter, da es ihnen nicht gelingt, Empathie für die Menschen hinter ihren grafischen Abstraktionen zu schaffen. Darüber hinaus schaffen diese Diagramme kein Vertrauen in die Daten, die sie darstellen, da es keine Möglichkeit gibt, den verwendeten Code und die Originaldaten zu sehen oder zu ihnen zurück zu navigieren. Um diese Funktionen zu erfüllen, würden Visualisierungen sehr von Interaktionen zur Erkundung der angezeigten Daten profitieren, die Standardgrafiken oft nur begrenzt bieten. Um das Verständnis der Stimmen der Menschen zu verbessern, haben wir 80 Ideen für neue Visualisierungen, neue Interaktionen und bessere Verbindungen zwischen verschiedenen Diagrammen entwickelt und kategorisiert, die wir in diesem Bericht vorstellen. Aus diesen Ideen haben wir 10 Prototypen und zwei Systeme implementiert, die verschiedene Visualisierungen integrieren. Wir zeigen, dass diese Integration ein einheitliches Erscheinungsbild und Verhalten der Visualisierungen ermöglicht. Die Visualisierungen haben alle das gleiche Grundkonzept: Jedes Individuum wird durch einen einzigen Punkt dargestellt. Um diese Idee zu verwirklichen, diskutieren wir Technologien, die die effiziente Darstellung einer großen Anzahl dieser Punkte ermöglichen. Mit diesen Visualisierungen sind direkte Interaktionen mit Darstellungen von Individuen möglich, indem man auf sie klickt oder eine Auswahl um sie herumzieht. Diese direkte Interaktion ist nur mit einer bidirektionalen Verbindung von der Visualisierung zu den angezeigten Daten möglich. Wir diskutieren verschiedene Strategien für bidirektionale Mappings und die damit verbundenen Kompromisse. Ein einheitliches Verhalten über Visualisierungen hinweg verbessert die Exploration. Für unsere Prototypen umfasst dies Gruppierung, Filterung, Hervorhebung und Einfärbung von Punkten. Unsere Arbeit an den Prototypen wurde durch die Entwicklungsumgebung Lively4 ermöglicht. Wir erklären, welche Teile von Lively4 unseren Prototyping-Prozess erleichtert haben. Schließlich bewerten wir unsere Herangehensweise an Domänenprobleme und die von uns entwickelten Visualisierungskonzepte. Unsere Arbeit liefert Inspiration und einen Ausgangspunkt für die Entwicklung von Visualisierungen in diesem Bereich. Unsere Visualisierungen können die Kommunikation zwischen Bürgern und ihrer Regierung verbessern und einfühlsame Entscheidungen motivieren. Unser Ansatz, bei dem wir niedrigstufige Entitäten zur Erstellung von Visualisierungen kombinieren, bietet einen wertvollen Ansatz für einen explorativen und einfühlsamen Arbeitsablauf. Wir zeigen, dass der Designraum für die Visualisierung dieser Art von Daten ein großes Potenzial hat und dass es möglich ist, qualitative und quantitative Ansätze zur Datenanalyse zu kombinieren.

While other techniques such as knitting or weaving have received technical support over the years through machines, crochet is still a purely manual craft. Not just the act of crochet itself is manual but also the process of creating instructions for new crochet patterns, which is barely supported by domain specific digital solutions. This leads to unstructured and often also ambiguous and erroneous pattern instructions. In this report, we propose a concept to digitally represent crochet patterns. This format incorporates crochet techniques which allows domain specific support for crochet pattern designers during the pattern creation and instruction writing process. As contributions, we present a thorough domain analysis, the concept of a graph structure used as domain specific language to specify crochet patterns and a prototype of a projectional editor using the graph as representation format of patterns and a diagramming system to visualize them in 2D and 3D. By analyzing the domain, we learned about crochet techniques and pain points of designers in their pattern creation workflow. These insights are the basis on which we defined the pattern representation. In order to evaluate our concept, we built a prototype by which the feasibility of the concept is shown and we tested the software with professional crochet designers who approved of the concept. N2 - Häkeln ist eine weltweit verbreitete Handarbeitskunst. Obwohl andere Techniken, wie stricken und weben über die Zeit maschinelle Unterstützung erhalten haben, ist Häkeln noch heute ein komplett manueller Vorgang. Nicht nur das Häkeln an sich, sondern auch der Prozess zur Anleitungserstellung von neuen Häkeldesigns ist kaum unterstützt mit digitalen Lösungen. In dieser Arbeit stellen wir ein Konzept vor, das Häkelanleitungen digital repräsentiert. Das entwickelte Format integriert Häkeltechniken, wodurch wir den Prozess des Anleitungschreibens für Designer spezifisch für die Häkeldomäne unterstützen können. Als Beiträge analysieren wir umfassend die Häkeldomäne, entwickeln ein Konzept zur Repräsentation von Häkelanleitungen basierend auf einer Graphenstruktur als domänenspezifische Sprache und implementieren einen projektionalen Editor, der auf der besagten Graphenstruktur aufbaut und weiterhin die erstellten Anleitungen als schematische Darstellung in 2D und 3D visualisiert. Durch die Analyse der Domäne lernen wir Häkeltechniken und Schwachstellen beim Ablauf des Anleitungserstellens kennen. Basierend auf diesen Erkenntnissen entwickeln wir das digitale Format, um Anleitungen zu repräsentieren. Für die Evaluierung unseres Konzepts, haben wir einen Prototypen implementiert, der die Machbarkeit demonstriert. Zudem haben wir die Software von professionellen Häkeldesignern testen lassen, die unsere Herangehensweise gutheißen.

In the past, research mostly focused on solving computer vision problems such as image classification or object detection on images displaying natural scenes. Nowadays other fields such as the field of cultural heritage, where an abundance of data is available, also get into the focus of research. In the line of current research endeavours, we collaborated with the Getty Research Institute which provided us with a challenging dataset, containing images of paintings and drawings. In this technical report, we present the results of the seminar "Deep Learning for Computer Vision". In this seminar, students of the Hasso Plattner Institute evaluated state-of-the-art approaches for image classification, object detection and image recognition on the dataset of the Getty Research Institute. The main challenge when applying modern computer vision methods to the available data is the availability of annotated training data, as the dataset provided by the Getty Research Institute does not contain a sufficient amount of annotated samples for the training of deep neural networks. However, throughout the report we show that it is possible to achieve satisfying to very good results, when using further publicly available datasets, such as the WikiArt dataset, for the training of machine learning models. N2 - Methoden zur Anwendung von maschinellem Lernen für das maschinelle Sehen haben sich in den letzten Jahren stark weiterentwickelt. Dabei konzentrierte sich die Forschung hauptsächlich auf die Lösung von Problemen im Bereich der Bildklassifizierung, oder der Objekterkennung aus Bildern mit natürlichen Motiven. Mehr und mehr kommen zusätzlich auch andere Inhaltsbereiche, vor allem aus dem kulturellen Umfeld in den Fokus der Forschung. Kulturforschungsinstitute, wie das Getty Research Institute, besitzen eine Vielzahl von digitalisierten Dokumenten, die bisher noch nicht analysiert wurden. Im Rahmen einer Zusammenarbeit, überließ das Getty Research Institute uns einen Datensatz, bestehend aus Photos von Kunstwerken. In diesem technischen Bericht präsentieren wir die Ergebnisse des Masterseminars "Deep Learning for Computer Vision", in dem Studierende des Hasso-Plattner-Instituts den Stand der Kunst, bei der Anwendung von Bildklassifizierungs, Objekterkennungs und Image Retrieval Algorithmen evaluierten. Eine besondere Schwierigkeit war, dass es nicht möglich ist bestehende Verfahren direkt auf dem Datensatz anzuwenden, da keine, bzw. kaum Annotationen für das Training von Machine Learning Modellen verfügbar sind. In den einzelnen Teilen des Berichts zeigen wir jedoch, dass es möglich ist unter Zuhilfenahme von weiteren öffentlich verfügbaren Datensätzen, wie dem WikiArt Datensatz, zufriedenstellende bis sehr gute Ergebnisse für die einzelnen Analyseaufgaben zu erreichen.

We present the formalism of Interval Probabilistic Timed Graph Transformation Systems (IPTGTSs) as a high-level modeling language. This language supports structure dynamics (based on graph transformation), timed behavior (based on clocks, guards, resets, and invariants as in Timed Automata (TA)), and interval probabilistic behavior (based on Discrete Interval Probability Distributions). That is, for the probabilistic behavior, the modeler using IPTGTSs does not need to provide precise probabilities, which are often impossible to obtain, but rather provides a probability range instead from which a precise probability is chosen nondeterministically. In fact, this feature on capturing probabilistic behavior distinguishes IPTGTSs from Probabilistic Timed Graph Transformation Systems (PTGTSs) presented earlier. Following earlier work on Interval Probabilistic Timed Automata (IPTA) and PTGTSs, we also provide an analysis tool chain for IPTGTSs based on inter-formalism transformations. In particular, we provide in our tool AutoGraph a translation of IPTGTSs to IPTA and rely on a mapping of IPTA to Probabilistic Timed Automata (PTA) to allow for the usage of the Prism model checker. The tool Prism can then be used to analyze the resulting PTA w.r.t. probabilistic real-time queries asking for worst-case and best-case probabilities to reach a certain set of target states in a given amount of time. N2 - Die formale Modellierung und Analyse ist für Softwareentwicklungsprozesse nach dem modellbasierten Ansatz von entscheidender Bedeutung. Wir präsentieren den Formalismus von Interval Probabilistic Timed Graph Transformation Systems (IPTGTS) als Modellierungssprache auf hoher abstrakter Ebene. Diese Sprache unterstützt Strukturdynamik (basierend auf Graphtransformation), zeitgesteuertes Verhalten (basierend auf Clocks, Guards, Resets und Invarianten wie in Timed Automata (TA)) und intervallwahrscheinliches Verhalten (basierend auf diskreten Intervallwahrscheinlichkeitsverteilungen). Das heißt, für das probabilistische Verhalten muss der Modellierer, der IPTGTS verwendet, keine genauen Wahrscheinlichkeiten bereitstellen, die oft nicht zu bestimmen sind, sondern stattdessen einen Wahrscheinlichkeitsbereich bereitstellen, aus dem eine genaue Wahrscheinlichkeit nichtdeterministisch ausgewählt wird. Tatsächlich unterscheidet diese Funktion zur Erfassung des probabilistischen Verhaltens IPTGTS von den zuvor vorgestellten PTGTS (Probabilistic Timed Graph Transformation Systems). Nach früheren Arbeiten zu Intervall Probabilistic Timed Automata (IPTA) und PTGTS bieten wir auch eine Analyse-Toolkette für IPTGTS, die auf Interformalismus-Transformationen basiert. Insbesondere bieten wir in unserem Tool AutoGraph eine Übersetzung von IPTGTSs in IPTA und stützen uns auf eine Zuordnung von IPTA zu probabilistischen zeitgesteuerten Automaten (PTA), um die Verwendung des Prism-Modellprüfers zu ermöglichen. Das Werkzeug Prism kann dann verwendet werden, um den resultierenden PTA bezüglich probabilistische Echtzeitabfragen (in denen nach Worst-Case- und Best-Case-Wahrscheinlichkeiten gefragt wird, um einen bestimmten Satz von Zielzuständen in einem bestimmten Zeitraum zu erreichen) zu analysieren.

The analysis whether such systems with probabilistic timed behavior adhere to a given specification is essential. When the states of the system can be represented by graphs, the rule-based formalism of Probabilistic Timed Graph Transformation Systems (PTGTSs) can be used to suitably capture structure dynamics as well as probabilistic and timed behavior of the system. The model checking support for PTGTSs w.r.t. properties specified using Probabilistic Timed Computation Tree Logic (PTCTL) has been already presented. Moreover, for timed graph-based runtime monitoring, Metric Temporal Graph Logic (MTGL) has been developed for stating metric temporal properties on identified subgraphs and their structural changes over time. In this paper, we (a) extend MTGL to the Probabilistic Metric Temporal Graph Logic (PMTGL) by allowing for the specification of probabilistic properties, (b) adapt our MTGL satisfaction checking approach to PTGTSs, and (c) combine the approaches for PTCTL model checking and MTGL satisfaction checking to obtain a Bounded Model Checking (BMC) approach for PMTGL. In our evaluation, we apply an implementation of our BMC approach in AutoGraph to a running example. N2 - Cyber-physische Systeme umfassen häufig ein komplexes nebenläufiges Verhalten mit Zeitbeschränkungen und probabilistischen Fehlern auf Anforderung. Die Analyse, ob solche Systeme mit probabilistischem gezeitetem Verhalten einer vorgegebenen Spezifikation entsprechen, ist essentiell. Wenn die Zustände des Systems durch Graphen dargestellt werden können, kann der regelbasierte Formalismus von probabilistischen gezeiteten Graphtransformationssystemen (PTGTSs) verwendet werden, um die Strukturdynamik sowie das probabilistische und gezeitete Verhalten des Systems geeignet zu erfassen. Die Modellprüfungsunterstützung für PTGTSs bzgl. Eigenschaften, die unter Verwendung von probabilistischer zeitgesteuerter Berechnungsbaumlogik (PTCTL) spezifiziert wurden, wurde bereits entwickelt. Darüber hinaus wurde das gezeitete graphenbasierte Laufzeitmonitoring mittels metrischer temporaler Graphlogik (MTGL) entwickelt, um metrische temporale Eigenschaften auf identifizierten Untergraphen und ihre strukturellen Änderungen über die Zeit zu erfassen. In diesem Artikel (a) erweitern wir MTGL auf die probabilistische metrische temporale Graphlogik (PMTGL), indem wir die Spezifikation probabilistischer Eigenschaften zulassen, (b) passen unseren MTGL-Prüfungsansatz auf PTGTSs an und (c) kombinieren die Ansätze für PTCTL-Modellprüfung und MTGL-Prüfung, um einen beschränkten Modellprüfungsansatz (BMC-Ansatz) für PMTGL zu erhalten. In unserer Auswertung wenden wir eine Implementierung unseres BMC-Ansatzes in AutoGraph auf ein Beispiel an.

While platform innovation is considered to be a critical success factor, adding certain features could hurt the ecosystem. If platform owners provide functionality that was previously provided by a contributor, the owners enter complementary product spaces. Complementary market entry frequently occurs on software platforms and is a major concern for third-party developers. Divergent findings on the impact of complementary market entry call for the consideration of additional factors. As prior research neglected the third-party perspective, this contribution aims to address this gap. We explore the use of measures to prevent complementary market entry using a survey approach on browser platforms. The research model is tested with 655 responses among developer from Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome. To explain countermeasures employment, developer’s attitude and perceived likelihood are important. The results reveal that developers employ countermeasures if complementary market entry is assessed negatively and perceived as likely for their extension. Differences among browser platforms concerning complementary market entry are identified. Product spaces of extensions being available on multiple platforms are less likely to be entered and more heavily protected. Implications for research and stakeholders, i.e. platform owners and contributors are discussed.

In a highly competitive environment, differentiation through provided functionality is a key factor for browser platforms. As the development of browsers progress, new functions are constantly being released. Browsers could thus enter complementary markets by adding functionality previously provided by third-party extensions, which is referred to as ‘platform coring’. Previous studies have missed the perspective of the parties involved. To address this gap, we conducted interviews with third-party and core developers in the security and privacy domain from Firefox and Chrome. This study provides three contributions. First, insights into stakeholder-specific issues concerning coring. Second, measures to prevent coring. Third, strategical guidance for developers and owners. Third-party vendors experienced and core developers confirmed that coring occurs on browser platforms. While developers with extrinsic motivations assess coring negatively, developers with intrinsic motivations perceive coring positively.

Each direction has disadvantages ranging from the lack of computational power at the edge level to the reliance on stable network connections with the centralized approach. Thus, a hybrid approach with centralized and decentralized components that possess specific abilities and interact is preferred. However, the distribution of AI capabilities leads to problems in self-adapting learning systems, as knowledgebases can diverge when no central coordination is present. Edge components will specialize in distinctive patterns (overlearn), which hampers their adaptability for different cases. Therefore, this paper aims to present a concept for a distributed interchangeable knowledge base in CPPS. The approach is based on various AI components and concepts for each participating node. A service-oriented infrastructure allows a decentralized, loosely coupled architecture of the CPPS. By exchanging knowledge bases between nodes, the overall system should become more adaptive, as each node can “forget” their present specialization.

With this, challenges regarding the competence of production workers, the complexity of tasks and stickiness of required knowledge occur [1]. Furthermore, workers experience time pressure which can lead to a decrease in output quality. Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) have the potential to assist workers in knowledge-intensive work grounded on quantitative insights about knowledge transfer activities [2]. By providing contextual and situational awareness as well as complex classification and selection algorithms, CPS are able to ease knowledge transfer in a way that production time and quality is improved significantly. CPS have only been used for direct production and process optimization, knowledge transfers have only been regarded in assistance systems with little contextual awareness. Embedding production and knowledge transfer optimization thus show potential for further improvements. This contribution outlines the requirements and a framework to design these systems. It accounts for the relevant factors.

It, however, is rather related to IT strategy than aligned to the actual corporate strategy and the work of the enterprise architect is characterized by tasks like prescribing, monitoring, documenting, and controlling. As digital transformation continues apace, companies are facing new challenges that lead to a volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) world. To face these challenges, vision, understanding, clarity and agility allow to anticipative and implement necessary changes. This, of course, has implications for the role of the enterprise architect. S/he needs to start actively supporting innovation and taking more of an advisory role instead of just being driven by the current state of the enterprise architecture. This paper investigates the role of the enterprise architect in the VUCA world. Based on current literature and expert interviews, a survey was conducted among consultants who work as (or with) enterprise architects. Survey results include the evaluation of statements on current tasks of enterprise architects, their influence on projects and companies as well as future requirements on the roles of the enterprise architect. The results from the survey were synthesized with the findings from literature to derive the roles, tasks and skills of enterprise architect in the VUCA world.

This chapter contributes to this research gap by providing an overview of the implemented reforms of school supervision structures in the German Länder. The effects of these reforms are analysed in order to answer the question of whether a convergence of school supervision systems is a result of these reforms. In a first step, a distinction is made to identify system-changing reforms. Although a decrease of the number or a concentration on one school supervision system is not a result of the analysis, it is argued that there is a convergence of school supervision structures, as a clear trend against school supervision systems with lower school supervisory boards can be observed.

CY - Berlin ER - TY - CHAP A1 - Krause, Hannes-Vincent A1 - Baumann, Annika T1 - The devil in disguise BT - malicious envy’s impact on harmful interactions between social networking site users T2 - ICIS 2021: user behaviors, engagement, and consequences N2 - Envy constitutes a serious issue on Social Networking Sites (SNSs), as this painful emotion can severely diminish individuals' well-being. With prior research mainly focusing on the affective consequences of envy in the SNS context, its behavioral consequences remain puzzling. While negative interactions among SNS users are an alarming issue, it remains unclear to which extent the harmful emotion of malicious envy contributes to these toxic dynamics. This study constitutes a first step in understanding malicious envy’s causal impact on negative interactions within the SNS sphere. Within an online experiment, we experimentally induce malicious envy and measure its immediate impact on users’ negative behavior towards other users. Our findings show that malicious envy seems to be an essential factor fueling negativity among SNS users and further illustrate that this effect is especially pronounced when users are provided an objective factor to mask their envy and justify their norm-violating negative behavior.

The involvement of non-state actors in the implementation of the Paris Agreement helps to address an action gap by countries that are unable or unwilling to implement ambitious ndcs. However, the increased prominence of initiatives driven by non-state actors also increases their direct and indirect influence on processes and rules which raises a number of questions with regards to the legitimacy of action and the democratic deficit of the global climate regime. Balancing legitimacy with effectiveness requires non-state initiatives to ensure transparent and inclusive governance, and accountability towards progress against their goals and pledges. Despite its encouragement towards private initiatives, the Paris Agreement creates surprisingly little regulatory space for non-state actors to gain hold. Neither are there measures that would link ndcs to nazca initiatives, nor are functional requirements such as transparency or reporting extended to non-state initiatives. While the Paris Agreement marks an important step towards harnessing private sector ability and ambition for climate action, more remains to be done to create a truly enabling framework for private action to strive and complement public efforts to address climate change.

ED - Schweiger, Gottfried T1 - Epistemic injustice and recognition theory: what we owe to refugees T2 - Migration, recognition and critical theory N2 - This paper starts from the premise that Western states are connected to some of the harms refugees suffer from. It specifically focuses on the harm of acts of misrecognition and its relation to epistemic injustice that refugees suffer from in refugee camps, in detention centers, and during their desperate attempts to find refuge. The paper discusses the relation between hermeneutical injustice and acts of misrecognition, showing that these two phenomena are interconnected and that acts of misrecognition are particularly damaging when (a) they stretch over different contexts, leaving us without or with very few safe spaces, and (b) they dislocate us, leaving us without a community to turn to. The paper then considers the ways in which refugees experience acts of misrecognition and suffer from hermeneutical injustice, using the case of unaccompanied children at the well-known and overcrowded camp Moria in Greece, the case of unsafe detention centers in Libya, and the case of the denial to assistance on the Mediterranean and the resulting pushbacks from international waters to Libya as well as the preventable drowning of refugees in the Mediterranean to illustrate the arguments. Finally, the paper argues for specific duties toward refugees that result from the prior arguments on misrecognition and hermeneutical injustice.
