Participants considered responsibility in both broad and narrow contexts, particularly in terms of interrelations between the individual and society. They examined discipline and responsibility deficits, general issues of criminal liability, responsibility for criminal offenses and crime control, the auxiliary role of penal repression, and the economics of penal deterrence. Other participants explored the effectiveness of theoretical and methodological dilemmas in penal law, the issue of responsibility in a system of values culture and criminality, the role of prison educators in crime prevention, prosecution, drug abuse, and criminal responsibility. Participants also looked at criminal and noncriminal infractions, sanctions, problems of liability under administrative law, social change, sociopolitical systems and ideologies of different countries, how society should react to established norms, and offender responsibility versus citizen rights.
