However, the mentioned concepts, which have not been explored in Persian literature to the full extent, bear ambiguities on certain issues. The present paper reviews both institutions, studies their emergence by evaluating ILC documents, scrutinizes their origins and ultimately while reaching the conclusion that derivative responsibility is supplementary to independent responsibility, it notes cooperation, moralism, accountability and recognition of international organizations as active actors of international community, as the most vital contributing factors to its establishment as well as its increasingly important status. Needless to say, the growing regard for the mentioned aspects of derivative responsibility, furthermore necessitates its existence as a means to secure justice.
