Social responsibility is the responsibility of individuals to society as a whole stipulated in social law and economic law. It is a dual structure system composed of role obligations and legal responsibilities. Responsibilities are divided into two types: the first one refers to the things that should be done within the duty, such as duties, due diligence, and post responsibilities. This kind of responsibility is actually a kind of role obligation responsibility or expected responsibility. The second is to bear certain forms of adverse consequences or mandatory obligations due to failure to do well (failure to perform role obligations) or failure to perform the obligation of facilitating, that is, past liabilities, such as liability for breach of contract, tort liability, etc.

Social responsibility can be divided into "positive responsibility" and "negative responsibility". Positive responsibility is also called expected social responsibility, which requires individuals to take positive actions to promote the production of consequences that are beneficial to the society (unspecified majority) or prevent the production of bad results. Negative liability, or past liability or legal liability, only requires remedy when an individual's actions have harmful consequences for society.
