This week you have had the opportunity to consider the foundations of criminal guilt and ethical issues relating to punishment in your readings. How can ethical theories regarding capital punishment, criminal liability, and non-punitive alternatives to traditional punishment inform our understanding of the justice system?
· Specifically, how do the abolitionist and retentionist views on capital punishment, as well as ethical perspectives on criminal liability and non-punitive alternatives, influence decisions about what should be criminalized and how punishment should be administered?
· Additionally, how might these ethical considerations guide criminal justice professionals in making fair and just decisions, and what real-life examples can support these positions?
