520 3 |a "Responsibility” in Chinese consists of two words: "ze” (责, charge) and "ren” (任, office). In modern Chinese, although the two words "ze” and "ren” are mostly used as one word, people can still discern the close relationship between ze and right and between ren and the duty associated with a position or a power. In modern life, however, there is a serious problem with these historically close, key relationships. This paper raises the crucial question: how should we understand and deal with the separation of freedom from responsibility, right from obligation, and duty from power, particularly within China? The first part of the paper investigates the understanding of responsibility and concepts of duty, obligation, right, and power in the Chinese context. The second part analyzes the key issues of responsibility associated with the expansion of rights and powers in today's China. The concluding part explores agents' responsibilities on different levels and offers suggestions on how to cultivate responsibility as part of a systematic moral education.
