The question of responsibility and technology is both smaller and larger than the question of ethics and technology. On the one hand, an examination of moral responsibility in the making and using of artifacts and artifact systems is only one aspect — though, on certain interpretations, it can be a very large aspect — of the ethics of technology. On the other, responsibility need not be restricted to the moral sphere, but can include reference to parental, legal, psychological, political, economic, educational, or aesthetic responsibilities. Indeed, one issue in the philosophy of technology concerns the proper relationship between these various kinds of responsibility and the diverse aspects of technology manifest in their respective domains. The truth is that responsibility has become a general normative category in a culture which is at once shot through with technology, and there exists as yet no consensus for interpreting the relative weights in the resulting multifaceted engagements. (It is also true that this is not the only term used in otherwise similar analyses; "obligation," "duty," "accountability," "answerability," etc., are sometimes preferred words with some authors, which overlap in meaning.) In light of this, the present bibliography cannot so much survey an existing field as indicate materials that ought to be considered by any systematic discussion. It is necessarily more propaedeutic than retrospective or comprehensive.
