 The requirements associated with forward looking collective responsibility are not as steep as those associated with its backward looking counterpart. Nor are they as metaphysical. For, unlike its backward looking counterpart, forward looking collective responsibility is not designed to capture an agent’s will. Instead, it is designed to distribute moral labor. Hence, while forward looking collective responsibility only works with purposeful agents, it does not require either a “collective mind” or that an agent be able to form “we intentions”. Instead, it requires only that the agent be able to do something in the world and take responsibility for making things happen.
