Journal Title: Юридические науки и образование - Year 2019, Vol 60, Issue 60
Abstract
Sense of just retribution (not revenge) that requires the existence and application of criminal punishment, without which the state itself cannot exist. That is why the punishment is lawful and fair. For the sake of eliminating lynching, lawlessness, revenge, society in the person of the state takes on the responsibility to punish the criminal, because this is required by a person who has suffered evil, has become the object of violence, insult, lost property, etc. Finally, to make sure that punishment is necessary or not, it is useful or useless in modern society, it is enough to imagine what will happen the next day, after the announcement of the abolition of criminal punishment for criminal behavior. The history of punishment in the fight against crime testifies that the goal of keeping (prevention) people from committing crimes to the extent that we dream and hope for is not practically achieved. On the contrary, crime is not decreasing, but growing. Therefore, the question arises of the real level of achievement of the goal of punishment, which depends on its objective capabilities. We cannot demand punishment for what it is not capable of. Therefore, the limits of the possibility of punishment should be investigated.
