Diese Studentenkonferenz setzt sich mit der Frage der Flüchtlingspolitik aus einer normativen Perspektive auseinander. Ausgangspunkt ist Serena Parekhs Buch ‚No refuge - Ethics and the Global Refugee Crisis'. Es stellt die Situation von Flüchtlingen dar, die in Flüchtlingslagern, in urbanen Slums oder auf der stetigen Weiterreise keine sichere Zuflucht finden. Es analysiert, wie die schlechte Unterbringung und gefährliche Flucht eine zweite Flüchtlingskrise schafft und diskutiert, welche moralischen Ansprüche Flüchtlinge in solchen Situationen an die internationale Gemeinschaft stellen können. Die Konferenzbeiträge setzen sich mit Fragen rund um das Thema Flüchtlingsrechte auseinander: Sollten Städte und Kommunen das Recht haben, über die Aufnahme von Flüchtlingen aus Lagern selbst zu entscheiden? Warum findet das Thema Flüchtlingslager so wenig Beachtung in der Öffentlichkeit? Haben Staaten eine direkte Pflicht, die Asylsuche zu erleichtern? Was müsste getan werden, um (insbesondere weiblichen) Flüchtlingen ein würdevolles Leben in Flüchtlingslagern zu ermöglichen?
Dieses Panel ergänzt die akademischen Diskussionen über Flüchtlingsrechte, indem es Betroffene und Mitarbeiter*innen verschiedener Nichtregierungsorganisationen zu Wort kommen lässt. Die verschiedenen Teilnehmenden werden ihr Wissen und ihre Erfahrungen im Kontext von Flucht, Asyl, Flüchtlingslagern und Flüchtlingsrechten teilen und danach an einer gemeinsamen Diskussion teilnehmen.

Theories of epistemic injustice are concerned with unjust or unfair behaviour related to knowledge production and communication. Theories of epistemic injustice ask, for example, who is excluded from knowledge and communication practices, who is silenced and how, whose meanings are distorted or ignored, whose knowledge or statements are trusted and who is doubted, and so on. The concept of epistemic injustice thus connects two philosophical lines of inquiry: Epistemology, that is, the question of what knowledge is and how it is obtained, and normative political theory, that is, the question of how a just society should be constituted. Theories of epistemic injustice examine how certain forms of (non)knowledge produce, entrench, and even justify social inequality in public discourse. Questions of epistemic injustice therefore have high scientific as well as social relevance.
Similarly, decolonial theorising offers an important critique of persisting structures of racism, imperialism and colonial power structures. One key aspect of decolonial theorising is to question the assumed “progress” brought about by modernity, capitalism and (neo)liberalism. White colonialism and imperialism pushed aside, buried and discredited many ways of knowing and modes of being.
It is the aim of this workshop to establish a connection between these issues and important philosophical debates. In so doing, the workshop hopefully draws out similarities and discrepancies in epistemic justice and decoloniality debates, further sharpening the critical edge of both projects.
Confirmed peakers are: Melanie Altanian, Amandine Catala, Emmalon Davis, Désirée Lim, Dennis Masaka, Gaile Pohlhaus, Kerstin Reibold, Encarnación Gutiérrez Rodríguez, Fabian Schuppert

WOGAP Berlin (short for Workshop on Gender and Philosophy) aims to bring together a group of researchers, mainly based in the Berlin area, who are interested in feminist philosophy broadly conceived. WOGAP Berlin gets its name from, and is modelled after, a similar workshop based at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. We plan to meet once per month at Humboldt University Berlin (at the moment, we are planning to use a hybrid format). In the workshops we will discuss work in progress in feminist and social philosophy by speakers whose papers will be circulated beforehand; unless explicitly announced otherwise, the papers and discussion will be in English. We also plan to provide drinks and snacks and to create a space for feminist (and other) exchange and encounter after the discussion.
If you are interested in participating in the workshop and/or in receiving other announcements on feminist philosophy in Berlin, please send an email to ls.feminist.philuhu-berlinpde and we will put you on the mailing list.
Schedule for this term (winter 21/22):
26.11: 4.30-6pm: Millicent Churcher (University of Sydney/FU Berlin): in person

Der fortschreitende Klimawandel zwingt unsere Gesellschaft sich der wandelnden Realität unserer Umwelt anzupassen. Diese Anpassungen werden von drei Fragen getrieben: Wie können wir einen sich immer weiter beschleunigten Klimawandel verhindern, wie können wir unsere Gesellschaft auf die veränderten Umweltbedingungen vorbereiten, und wie kann beides auf eine gerechte und sozialverträgliche Weise geschehen? Die Vorlesungsreihe will die letzte Frage als Leitlinie für die Beantwortung der beiden ersten Fragen nutzen und somit fragen: Wie müssen sich die heutigen gesellschaftlichen, politischen, und ökonomischen Systeme sowie die sie tragenden Werte und Normen ändern, um eine gerechte Zukunft zu schaffen? Welche Alternativen gibt es heute schon und wie können diese innerhalb eines demokratischen Systems legitimiert werden? Wie können die heutigen und zukünftigen Bürden des Klimawandels gerecht verteilt werden und welche systemischen Voraussetzungen müssen dafür geschaffen werden? Die Vorlesungsreihe nimmt sich dieser Fragen in zwei thematischen Blöcken an: Der erste Themenblock „Kapitalismus und Wachstum“ soll sich Themen rund um unser ökonomisches System und den damit verbundenen Werten, Normen, und Herausforderungen widmen. Der zweite Themenblock „Legitimation und Mitbestimmung“ stellt sich Fragen rund um Kriterien für eine legitime, d.h. gerechtfertigte, Klimapolitik sowie der Rolle, die öffentlicher Diskurs und breite Mitbestimmung hierbei spielen.
The workshop discussed conceptualizations of and theories about land, nature, and the environment and how they inform and possibly transform our current approaches to climate change and the needed transitions to move towards a greener future. On the one hand, the workshop asked how our current understanding of land, nature, and environment is connected to climate change and climate change adaptation and mitigation strategies. On the other hand, the workshop explored what alternative concepts of land, nature, and environment there are and how these would transform our understanding of and approach to the challenges of climate change. For example, relational approaches have recently gained more attention both in philosophy and environmental sciences and are transforming our understanding of humans’ place in nature as well as strategies of ecosystem management and concepts of the foundations of territoriality.
The workshop was held online on two half days (13./14.01.22 – 4-7PM (GMT+1)).
