Crime and Punishment
Crime
and Punishment
The theme of crime and punishment has been explored throughout history by human law, literature, philosophy and media. It involves not only an illegal act and its consequence, but also profound debates about justice, ethics and human nature.
Having conduct that violates the criminal law and affects
society, an individual or a group. It may vary according to culture, time and
legal context.
This implies receiving a penalty sanction for the perpetrator
of a crime. The objective may be retribution, rehabilitation, deterrence or
social protection.
I think that beyond the illegal act, punishment implies
understanding the roots of the crime, its effects on the victim, the victimizer
and society. To think about punishment is also to think about the justice we
want to build.
