Moral consciousness and the death penalty

Journal Title: Юридические науки и образование - Year 2017, Vol 53, Issue 53

Abstract

Every nation in the determination of its attitude to the death penalty in the first place has to approach it from the level of their consciousness, including justice, which is expressed most of all in understanding the relevant facts and positions, and then in the formulation of defined objectives and finding a means to achieve them. The crime rate at some point will be an indicator of the moral state of a nation, because crime as a social phenomenon reflects the moral side of people and society and so has a major impact on the level of morality in any system of punishment.
