Introduction: The Problem of 'Collective' or 'Group' Responsibility -- 1. Locating Questions of Group Responsibility: A Troubling Case -- 2. Developing an Alternative Approach: A Lesson from Social Psychology -- 3. Defining Identity Groups: The Importance of Narrative -- 4. Broadening Participation: Arendt and May on Shared Responsibility -- 5. A Narrative Account of Shared Responsibility -- Conclusion: Extending the Narrative Account.

An African-American single mother is harassed and threatened with violence until she moves out of an all 'white' neighborhood. A hate crime has occurred and we wonder, who is responsible? Is it just the few people who actively threatened the woman and her children, or does responsibility extend further? This book explores these questions in detail and ultimately finds that responsibility may extend far beyond active perpetrators. Within philosophy, these kinds of questions are typically discussed in the debate over 'collective' or 'group' responsibility. This book reviews the debate and examines the standard objections to group responsibility. It also evaluates some currently available accounts but finds them unsatisfying in various ways. Ultimately, drawing on work in social psychology, narrative ethics, and feminist philosophy, the author presents a new account which answers the standard objections while also giving practical guidance to individuals who take their group-related responsibilities seriously.
