Retribution, which is just another word for revenge, supported by the religious doctrine of an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.next argument in favour of bringing back capital punishment concerns public security. If the death penalty were reinstated, it would mean that a convicted murderer could not be set free after serving 20 years or less of a life sentence and be able to go on to murder again. . SO reduction should only be available for murder and serious violent crimes.last main pro-hanging argument is the most cold-blooded, it is that it makes economic sense to hang convicted murderers rather than keep them in prison wasting taxpayers 'money.
Cons: arguments against the death penalty are largely humanitarian. But there are also statistical reasons for opposing it: the deterrence figures do not add up. In Britain, 1903 was the record year for executions and yet in 1904 the number of homicides actually rose. If the deterrence theory were correct, the rate should have fallen.other reasons to oppose the death penalty are largely a matter of individual conscience and belief. One is that murder is murder and that the state has no more right to take a life than the individual. The other is that Christianity preaches forgiveness, not revenge. There have been 14 attempts to bring back hanging since its abolition in Britain.main argument against reintroducing capital punishment is that innocent people are sometimes wrongly convicted, and while people can be released from prison, they cannot be brought back from the dead if they have been hanged.

Punitive damages are intended to punish a party or set an example for similar wrongdoers. Though onerous (обтяжливі), punitive damages in a civil case do not carry with them the same stigma attached to criminal punishment.transgressions have been punished in various ways throughout history. The standard punishments in ancient Greek and Roman societies were death, Slavery, mutilation (тілесне покарання) (Corporal Punishment), imprisonment, or Banishment (вигнання). Some punishments were especially creative. In ancient Rome, for example, a person who murdered a close relative was enclosed in a sack with a cock, a viper, a dog, and a monkey, and then cast into the sea.
