Thank you, very helpful. However, the quote given at the end of the video is not in the link you have given in the description. Is the quote from a different version of the essay? Thank you
Correct, the original document that I referred to is unfortunately no longer available, and translations differ a little. However, contentwise it's the same.
Those are some very important ideas behind criminal law. I knew the ideas but not Beccaria's name. Thank goodness we live in a time where those ideas are mundane and unremarkable and uncontroversial (except perhaps the death penalty in some parts of the world).

Excellent prensentation. Thank you. Can the poster or anyone else explain how proportionality to the harm caused and fidelity to laws passed by legislators can co-exist? If two people each fire a gun at another person and one hits the spine and the other nicks the ear, surely the legislatures can't account for each and every scenario, so it would still be up to the magistrate/judge to determine the punishment, no? The legislature most likely would pass a law against attempted murder with a sentence for the crime being ten years. But each shooter getting the same sentence would not be proportional where one victim is paralyzed for life and the other was treated and released the day of the shooting barely worse for wear. Again, thanks for the primer-very interesting.
Those societies that adopted these enlightened ideas certainly had to consider scenarios like yours. In the United States our founders concluded that in your scenario what was important was the mens reah, or the state of mind of the perpetrator. In your example the state of mind of either of your two shooters could have been to kill in in order to eliminate or on the other hand either shooter could have meant to merely protect one's self from death or great bodily injury. The motive, as it should, makes a big difference although not the only factor hence our different penalties for "attempted murder" vs "murder in the 1st degree", etc.

So 17 to 25 years of life imprisonment is better than death penalty ? In my view, people fear death more than being locked in a room for limited amount of time. I am so confused. 😭
@@CriminologyWeb What? Nono, the video is really accurate! It has even more details than I could ever ask for packed in six minutes! Sorry for yesterday, studying sometimes is able to blackout my reasoning...
