The Social Role of Lawyers: moral responsibility, subjective agency, trust
Abstract
This article attempts to answer the question why is it worth
to exhibit the category of agency in the legal practice. Answering
the question I started my discussion from the presentation ideas
related to the issue of the social role of the lawyers. In the completion
of this objective, I discussed three ideas: moral responsibility,
trust and subjective agency. Putting forward the role of the lawyer,
I paid attention to the relationship between the notion of trust
in the lawyer’s role and moral responsibility. This relationship is
based on an ethical link, which is founded on a kind of obligation.
This idea can be demonstrated by looking into confidence in the
lawyer’s role as a special form of obligation to consider individual,
institutional and social arguments. In the presented approach
the state of limbo between the individual dimension, which focuses
on the relationship between a specific individual and their rights,
and the public dimension, where attention is paid to institutional
and social arguments, is a characteristic feature of the professional
role of a lawyer. The shaping of a professional role in a subjective
and structural authorship is based on the idea of a two-way
movement. It consists in highlighting the institutional structure
with simultaneous reinforcement of the role of the subject who
acts within it.
