		Indeed, we are rendered responsible by the fragility of polity.
		As political undertaking, by contrast, the assumption of responsibility is predicated on an acknowledgement of the extent to which who we are depends on our historical relation to others, the way we are enmeshed in the stories enacted in the world, irrespective of our particular motives and intentions.
		Political responsibility thus requires us to act in the "broken middle" between love and law that is the space of politics (Rose 1996), to find the just measure between fleeing responsibility for actions of which we are not the authors and the paralysis that ensues from recognition of an infinite responsibility.

		We generally hold people responsible for their actions, and will say that they deserve praise or blame for what they do.
		Compatibilists often argue that, on the contrary, determinism is a prerequisite for moral responsibility — you can't hold someone responsible unless his actions were determined by something (this argument can be traced to Hume and was also used by the anarchist William Godwin).
		While not mechanistic in the same sense as classical physics, most current scientific theories are also deterministic, by necessity — it is a basic assumption of all scientific endeavors that the future can be predicted.

	Instinct As A Sanction
		In view of this great desire to escape moral responsibility by shifting it to moral principles and sanctions of various sorts, it is not surprising that the powerful sanction given instincts by common usage, religion, philosophy, and science should be used as a moral principle to determine right and wrong.
		The responses we make are the natural responses man makes when subjected to the conditions of modern life, and there is no reason to suppose that these responses are less natural than the responses man made in a state of savagery.
		The assumption that all tendencies, impulses, and capacities in the human being should be developed is equally untenable, as well as the assumption that we can wish for the development of all.

		Of course, the driver is not liable even though he foresaw (through specially communicated information) that £20 million would be lost as a result of breach of the undertaking to arrive by 12pm.
		The increase in price is not necessary for such an assumption - if the taxi driver was known to be a billionaire or a compulsive gambler, or the airport was next door, then Bill might also reasonably interpret the driver as taking responsibility - but it does the job.
		Also, it is my view that the scope of responsibility for personal injury will not be as nicely sculpted by price/insurance and other known factors, since most people cannot be reasonably assumed to take responsibility for their own personal injury arising from breach however cheap the service.

		When lawyers not in the same firm agree to a division of legal fees, each lawyer is responsible for providing the required written notice to a client under DR 1-104 regarding his or her own lack of professional liability insurance.
		The [ABA] Committee is of the opinion that assumption of responsibility does not require substantial services to be performed by the lawyer since assumption of responsibility is the alternative to a division of fees in proportion to services performed.
		A lawyer who assumes responsibility should be available to both the client and the other fee-sharing lawyer as needed throughout the representation and should remain knowledgeable about the progress of the legal matter.

		Stewardship is the assumption of responsibility for the welfare of the world.
		A true steward does not qualify the assumption of responsibility ― it never dismisses a problem as the problem of another.
		Specialization is natural and even necessary; but the general account, the responsibility for the whole, must also be addressed, and the Stewardship Union is meant to establish a collective accountability.
