The question of who exactly is responsible for an organization’s actions cannot be too carefully considered, as a clear understanding of this point is crucial from ethical, moral, managerial, business, and public perspectives. This article discusses how to justify a non-participant member’s responsibility for the actions of other group members, establishing collective responsibility. I suggest good grounds for perceiving groups as organic entities, which is adequate for establishing collective responsibility. As my discussion develops I suggest considering this way of viewing groups as non-metaphysical; here, “organic” is only a metaphor, although a powerful and a justified one.
