Social responsibility: the case of citizensand civil/non-profit organisations

Absztrakt

Nowadays on hearing the word responsibility we associate it with corporate social responsibility (CSR) and there is certainly literature available on this relation. According to my readings, citizens, organizations and also the state can take responsibility. Citizens and organizations (firms, civil organisations, etc.) can also take responsibility for their own lives and actions and also for the events
in their surroundings, namely social and economic processes. The state can take responsibility for the latter as well. The study shows the following approaches of responsibility: individual social responsibility and organisational social responsibility. The paper is based on theoretical and empirical information.
