The present study starts from the undeniable assumption that society and the state as its highest form of organization cannot exist if the individuals who compose it are not held accountable for their actions. In this context, the thesis that the scope and guarantee of freedom are directly proportional to the depth and inviolability of the principles of social responsibility is further developed. New arguments are put forward in support of the idea that the extent of a person’s social freedom depends on the degree of responsibility of the individual. In a democratic society, the individual freely and independently determines his or her choices, and this possibility is the basis for responsibility, which finds legal expression and consolidation in the Constitution and the legislation in force, the extent and guarantee of freedom being directly proportional to the depth and inviolability of the principles of social responsibility. Finally, it is recommended that the Constitution of the Republic of Moldova be supplemented with rules on social solidarity and ways of ensuring it.
