The subject of the present study is help; the foremost ontological condition of its realization (besides intellectual disposition, ethical qualifications, love and others) is responsibility, which constitutes a person’s humanity and thereby makes a unique contribution to the formation of his/her inner structure. Through responsible help we can perform genuine acts of mercy towards our neighbour and carry a small part of his/ her personal fate. The aim of the study is to refine the concept of responsible help and to indicate its several modes in the formation of a person’s humanity. The essence of responsible help is investigated; it presupposes rationality of action, prudence in doing good, and freedom as the fundamental condition of conscious response to values. The refinement of the concept of responsible help is based on the analyses of the virtues of munificence and magnanimity (Aristotle and St Thomas Aquinas) and generosity (J.Tischner). Despite their complex nature, these virtues are definable through an analysis of instances of appropriate help to others.

In the current Act on NIK, a definition of “a person responsible” cannot be found, nor can be that of “perpetrator – a person who committed an irregularity”, although the legislator has used the former term in several articles of the act without, however, explaining it, and without solving the problem. For example, a post audit statement should indicate persons responsible for irregularities, and the scope and consequences of those irregularities, on the basis of the material gathered in the audit file. This is probably the most significant provision of the Act on NIK, related to the issue discussed in this study. The author, referring to linguistic, systemic and usefulness-related interpretation of the provisions regulating the activity of NIK, as well as post-audit statements, attempts to answer these doubts.

The motivation and its influence on social responsibility in a democratic state depends from the system of individual values, its readiness for a particular way of actions, which includes, firstly, the common system of individual values, secondly, the system of social attitudes. The influence of the motivation on a charity is very broad — from religious beliefs, the need for help, to the ability of the decrease a tax. Motives of a rational, economic nature have a reference to a particular situation and ensure to individual conditions that actually are existed. The level of a spiritual and moral culture of man manifests not only in the understanding of the phenomenon and the essence of charity, but also in the structure of the motives of this activity, the choice of its form and instruments in a democratic state.

The presented work attempts to show a link between business and global responsibility with the Socratic idea of self-knowledge. The today’s ethics discusses the fundamental issues of the man’s place in the world. The human existence is one of the causes of the contemporary crisis. This crisis between man and the world obliges us to raise a radical question of the ethical origins of individual and global responsibility for the quality of life, including also the future human generations. This question requires going back to the historical and ethical considerations about the Socratic project of good life. The starting point for the Socratic ethics is an interpersonal and inner-personal dialogue; the subsequent result of that is man’s practical wisdom of how to build his own life together with others. Socrates argues that the key issue of responsibility is awakening of self-awareness and the way to achieve this objective is dialogue.

This study analyzes the behavior of the companies in the index of México’s Precios y Cotizaciones (IPC), with respect to measures of financial performance and its relationship with the two main approaches of innovation, according to the Bogota and Oslo manuals; assessing their impact on the stock price. The data is used on a quarterly basis from January 2000 to December 2011. It also makes reference to the impact of having the distinction “Socially Responsible Company” (Corporate Social Responsibility), in the Mexican stock market price reaction. Our main interest is to be pioneers in the search for relationships between topics that are currently treated as “alien” (CSR and Innovation) in formal academic publications, but we intuitively know that they are related inside organizations.

The paper starts with focusing on three forms in which ‘Civil Ethics’ can be considered, accord-ing to whether we approach it from the minimum Ethics common to the citizens, or universal rights, or the ethical backbone of civil society. Subsequently, the paper examines historical rea-sons that account for the imposition of the above mentioned. Which would there be the most suitable one? If civil freedom and equality are to be ethical and metaphysical mainstays of democ-ratic values, the article shows the weakness of the first two approaches. As the third one is con-cerned, it seems to be fruitful insofar as democratic values are accompanied by civic virtues, which are the only ones that can make them effective. The article is concluded with an analysis of the virtues of responsibility, strength, and prudence with the particular connotation that they have in the realm of public life.

The financial crisis as a realization of self-fulfilling prophecy reveals an important ethical dilemma of journalist’s responsibility. The dilemma is expressed in a question, if one should publish the information on crisis, since the publication probably increases the degree of crisis. The difficulty to answer this question points to the shortcomings of the standard conception of moral reasoning and to an approach to the relation between general normative theory and applied ethics. Instead of the standard conception the author proposes a „grammatical” account of general/applied ethics relation, connected with the Wittgenstein’s approach to the question of necessity in mathematics and other non-descriptive disciplines.

Hermeneutic existence is a phronetic existence aiming at nurturing practical wisdom in human life: It originates with life, affects life, and transforms life. Hermeneutic truth is a world-disclosive truth of understanding. The experience of hermeneutic truth calls for human Dasein’s personal engagement and existential answer, and expresses hermeneutic moral imperative. In his phenomenology of religious life, Heidegger reinterprets Augustine’s essential disclosure of the being that we are and formalizes his notion of inquietum cor, cura, memoria, and tentatio distorting their original religious context. With reference to Heidegger’s analysis of Dasein, Gadamer emphasizes that understanding is not only one of the human faculties, but a mode of Dasein’s being-in-theworld. Gadamer’s hermeneutics is not a methodology of interpretation, but a philosophical reflection on the nature of understanding, which transgresses the concept of a method. Since all true understanding is application of what is understood to the subject of understanding, understanding encompasses the whole of human life in its radical openness toward oneself, the other, and the world. Hermeneutics as practical philosophy motivates human beings to actively participate in the life of the community, which is our inherent and inalienable right and moral imperative.

In theoretical literature there is a great divergence among the definitions of the essence of poverty. It is usually identifi ed as a shortage of essential material means to survive, but this characterization is not sufficient to describe the phenomenon. The multifaceted criteria of measuring poverty, its forms and causes, make it difficult to find a common ground for understanding and effective solutions. What additionally comes into play are disputes concerning doctrine and type of government preferences, which often heat up the discussion instead of enabling a move closer to a well-structured solution that aids eradicating poverty. Amartya Sen establishes the concept of poverty as a failure of basic exchange entitlements. Deciding on this approach, he consistently references the idea of freedom as an unrestricted use of one’s capabilities to pursue desired goals. Poverty then is seen here as a lack of basic exchange entitlements, and not only as a matter of low income, which in turn poses a different problem not only for the economists, but also for the governing bodies, which are responsible for eliminating poverty (and hunger in particular) in the modern world. Sen therefore suggests shifting focus from a perspective centered around income to a perspective centered around capabilities, because the former one is a more precise way of defining the essence of poverty as a state in which some basic exchange entitlements become restricted, which can furthermore widen our field of research from a strictly economic to one to an ethical/anthropological standpoint, giving a clearer picture of the distinct character of poverty and the poor. Pursuing of one’s freedom becomes problematic in the context of poverty and particularly hunger, because in this situation human exchange entitlements are restricted, “handicapped” or fail completely. Amartya Sen’s proposal to expand the number of exchange entitlements, however justified and significant to a particular individual, turns out to be insufficient, because it seems that freedom ontologically extends beyond the category human exchange entitlements.

At the beginning, the author presents some basic intuitions determining the necessity for philosopher’s reflections on not only numerical singularity, but also individuality. Then he considers briefly four selected types of individuality, namely: anything existing, the universe, a person and the Absolute. Nevertheless, for different reasons, in each of these cases it is possible to assume an impossible to fully express entity, that is, individuality. The next part develops the idea of a person’s individuality which stays directly linked with his or her permanent act of self-creation. The essence of the act would lie in a radical distinction between the person and any other human being as well as in generating the own, absolute personal otherness. At more accurate, largely speculative characteristics of this act it turns out to be necessary to redefine such categories like duty, responsibility, trust.

The recent crisis was a surprise to the ruling business, economic and political elites. Leadership in crisis conditions is a special kind of mission and a performance in a precarious situation. Unusual and unexpected crisis situation may create a special kind of leadership under conditions of uncertainty. We can put it in words: Leadership in times of crisis. It should take account primarily of preventive and anti-crisis action, beneficiaries and victims of the crisis, management style, minimizing risks and threats, as well as use of the experience of the crisis as an invaluable knowledge for the future. In a crisis situation there is ambiguity of leadership. On the one hand there is a decline in the credibility of leadership, and critique of leadership, on the other hand there are the expectations of various interest groups that a charismatic leader will emerge who restore credibility, trust and satisfy their need for security. The aim of this paper is an attempt to answer the question: What model of leadership is effective in a crisis?

The paper presents a reconstruction of Hume’s complex argument that takes determinism as a prerequisite for moral evaluation of actions and for the attribution of moral and criminal responsibility for an act. The paper falls into three sections. The first outlines Hume’s “doctrine of necessity”, i. e., his deterministic theory of action, and shows how determinism can be reconciled with the possibility of free action. The second section focuses on Hume’s view of moral judgement and explains how determinism and the denial of free will can be reconciled with the notion of moral responsibility for an act. The last section, devoted to Hume’s ideas about just punishment, canvasses Hume’s hybrid conception of the different purposes of punishment.

The article indicates a common axiom of Karol Wojtyła's personalistic philosophy and theory of development: human dignity is the highest value in the natural world. The author analyzes the content of the encyclical – Laborem Exercens, Sollicitudo Rei Socialis, Centesimus Annus in the context of personological economic theory by Professor Franciszek Piontek. Studies on the category of dignity and development prove the connection between human welfare and sustainable economic development. This study argues that sustainable development cannot disregard economic efficiency and it should not be made only on the basis of price and market mechanism. Sustainable development of contemporary civilization depends on an aggregate: economic, natural and human capital.

Contemporary world on one hand is a place of unknown never before abundance but on the other hand it is a place where so much poverty, unsatisfied people’s needs, destabilization of natural and socio – economical systems has been happening. Neglecting human rights and basic political needs are the most important threats for development. The idea of sustainable development, playing one of the meaningful answer developmental threats requires such development which would satisfy needs of present generations without depriving future generations abilities and satisfactions of their needs. A. Sen’s concept of development, being treated as a process of widening basic civil rights and freedoms, effective-ness of social security networks play fundamental role for intellectual reflection on the idea of sustainable development.

Content available Professional Responsibility and Conflict of Interest
88%
EN
When conflicts of interests arise for the professional, s/he should be aided in their resolution by a long-standing body of knowledge called ethics. Ethics provides an array of concepts, vocabulary, and strategies to aid in both the understanding and the resolution of such challenges. Central here are two concepts, viz. responsibility and conflict of interest. Responsibility emerges incrementally from a person’s knowledge, freedom, and deliberation. Conflicts of interest are either simple or complex: simple, when a principle conflicts with human wants; complex, when two or more principles are mutually inconsistent. An analysis of these two concepts leads us to the claim that a professional, to remain such, even while embracing an ever-expanding burden of responsibility, needs a conceptual framework for resolving conflicts of interest.

This paper explores Agnes Heller’s theory of morals. A widespread belief claims that Europe has been in a general spiritual crisis and cultural anxiety since the 20th century. A number of thinkers in Central and Eastern Europe contributed to theoretical-ly dealing with this crisis; they intended to reconstruct and so change European culture. They reflected modernity from the standpoint of cultural criticism with deep moral concern and a high sense of historical responsibility. Among them, Heller deeply ana-lyzes the human condition and dilemma of morals in the modern world, and in effect proposes an ethics of personality.

A principle of extended producer’s responsibility in the law of waste management pursues the following aims of the waste management: 1) the maximum decrease in the amount of waste in any type of business and human existence, 2) the immediate reuse of production waste in a manufacturing process, 3) recovery of raw materials from collected waste, 4) application of processes to dispose of waste, 5) orderly waste storage ensuring the least damage to the environment. The overriding objective of this principle is application of legal instruments encouraging producers to undertake activities which will: prevent production of waste, decrease the level of using materials and energy at every stage of a product life cycle and encourage to introduce changes in the phase of a product design and during its manufacture. Broadly speaking, a principle of extended producer’s responsibility is connected with a producer’s financial liability for a product. In a legal structure of the extended producer’s responsibility we deal with preventive liability. This principle completes a principle of incurring costs of waste management.

The study deals with a phenomenon of responsibility. It distinguishes between natural responsibility and moral responsibility or legal responsibility (liability). The central intention of the text is to reveal that responsibility does not refer only to moral or legal dimensions. The natural responsibility is greater (more important) than the moral responsibility or legal one. What is more, both the moral responsibility and the legal responsibility are changeable. The natural responsibility instead, is constant and concerns all the mankind in the same way.
