As an individual, we are still part of a family be it big or small. We all are someones neighbor in a , tribe, village, city, county, state, region, country and the world which makes us inherently responsible to each other.At the same time, full clement potential cannot be reached if individuality is suppressed by society, First and foremost, the duties of each individual within any community are cooperation, respect and participation.

According to John B. Cobb, Jr. , Ph. D. who is Professor of pietism Emeritus at the Claremont School of Theology, In a community the idea of the common trustworthy takes on a far richer meaning than in a society understood as founded only on a compact and made up of atomic individuals.Because the good of each is bound up with the good of others, we can consider which changes in the society as a whole conduce to the good of those who participate in it. If you choose or not to be a part of a community, we still have the same obligations to the community of which we are a part. right of the Community to the Individual Defining Social Responsibility within the Community Conclusion References Princeton, NJ Liv ability Score.
