Justice in society must include both a fair trail to the accused and the selection of an appropriate punishment for those proven guilty. Because justice is regarded as one form of equality, we find in its earlier expressions the idea of a punishment equal to the crime. Recorded in the Bible is the expression " an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth". That is, the individual who has done wrong has committed an offense against society. To make repayment for this offense, society must get equally balanced, which can be done only by imposing an equal injury upon him. This conception of deserved-punishment justice is reflected in many parts of the legal codes and procedures of modern times, which is illustrated when we demand the death penalty for a person who has committed murder. This philosophy of punishment was supported by the German idealist Hegel, who believed that
society owed it to the criminal to put into operation a punishment equal to the crime he had committed
. The criminal had by his own actions denied his true self and it is necessary to do something that will eliminate this denial and restore the self that has been denied. To the murderer nothing less than giving up his own life will pay his debt. The demand for the death penalty is a right the state owes the criminal and it should not deny him what he deserves.
Modern jurists have tried to replace deserved-punishment justice with the notion of corrective(改造式的)justice. The aim of the latter is not to abandon the concept of equality but to find a more adequate way to express it. It tries to preserve the idea of equal opportunity for each individual to realize the best that is in him. This does not mean that criminals will escape punishment or be quickly returned to take up careers of crime. It means that justice is to heal the individual, not simply to get with him. Therefore, his conviction of crime must not deprive him of the opportunity to make his way in the society of which he is a part.
Compared with the old justice concept, modern law as shown in this passage is______.
选项
A、less vengeful
B、less effective
C、less just
D、less reasonable
答案
A
解析
推理判断题。根据“justice is to heal the individual,not simply to get even with him”可知,现代法律制裁是为了拯救人们,而不是让人们复仇。所以答案为A。vengeful意为“复仇的”;effective意为“有效的”;just作形容词时意为“公平的”;reasonable意为“合理的”。
