Abstract
English: Defining criteria for responsible action in the marketplace was the central theme of the

second international conference of the Consumer Citizenship Network which was held

May 26-27, 2005 at the University of Economics in Bratislava, Slovakia. 147

participants from 35 countries attended. The participants examined how mature civic

involvement can affect the development of a more just and caring global society. They

also discussed and exchanged experiences about how "taking responsibility" can be

taught in higher education particularly in relation to consumer citizenship education.

The conference dealt with: how taking responsibility contributes to dignity and self-worth, how the responsibilities of the individual, particularly in his/her role as a

consumer, can be identified, how the responsibilities of the individual differ from those of business and

governments, how the individual fulfils his/her responsibilities, how one learns to be responsible, how the spirit of selfless community service can be developed in children and

youth, how being responsible can be enjoyable. 50 papers were presented at the conference describing research and development work

about topics such as: Peer pressure and self-image; Acquiring a knowledge of

consumer rights; Risk perception and labelling; ICT as tools for citizenship; Agenda

21 and consumer citizenship; Corporate and consumer social responsibility; Health

and illness alienation; Teaching responsibility.
