Bearing responsibility yes, but who, for what and for what reason? Such key questions are the focus of this interdisciplinary lecture. It deals in particular with ethical principles, illustrated by examples from social practice that are important for students of science and technology. A broad spectrum of responsible knowledge for our society is presented. Theoretical principles and practical examples are discussed together competently, critically and creatively.
