Two meanings of the concept of responsibility

The main argument of the paper is, that there are two meanings of the conce pt of responsibility. On one hand there is the meaning bringing the respons ibility together with the idea of imputable actions and on the other hand t he concept of responsibility defined through the quality of warranty. the r esponsibility is thus seen as related to the human behaviour as well as to the kindred and mutual dependence, which are constitutive of human relation ships. The author's view is, that to shed light on these different meanings makes the proper understanding of what it means to be responsible possible .
