Aim of the present paper is to provide a formal characterization of various different notions of responsibility within groups
of agents (Who did that? Who gets the blame? Who is accountable for that? etc.). To pursue this aim, the papers proposes an
organic analysis of organized collective agency by tackling the issues of organizational structure, role enactment, organizational
activities, task-division and task-allocation. The result consists in a semantic framework based on dynamic logic in which
all these concepts can be represented and in which various notions of responsibility find a formalization. The background
motivation of the work consists in those responsibility-related issues which are of particular interest for the theory and
development of multi-agent systems.
