Introduction:
Each society has its own way of social control for which it frames certain laws
and also mentions the sanctions with them. These sanctions are nothing but the
punishments. ‘The first thing to mention in relation to the definition of
punishment is the ineffectiveness of definitional barriers aimed to show that
one or other of the proposed justifications of punishments either logically
include or logically excluded by definition.’ Punishment has the following
features:
# It involves the deprivation of certain
normally recognized rights, or other measures considered unpleasant
# It is consequence of an offence
# It is applied against the author of the
offence
# It s applied by an organ of the system
that made the act an offence
The kinds of punishment given are surely
influenced by the kind of society one lives in. Though during ancient period of
history punishment was more severe as fear was taken as the prime instrument in
preventing crime. But with change in time and development of human mind the
punishment theories have become more tolerant to these criminals. Debunking the
stringent theories of punishment the modern society is seen in loosening its
hold on the criminals. The present scenario also witnesses the opposition of
capital punishment as inhumane, though it was a major form of punishing the
criminals earlier. But it may also be observed till recently the TALIBANS used
quite a harsh method for suppression. The law says that it does not really
punish the individual but punishes the guilty mind.
As punishment generally is provided in
Criminal Law it becomes imperative on our part to know what crime or an offence
really is. Here the researcher would like to quote Salmond’s definition of
crime: Crime is an act deemed by law to be harmful for the
society as a whole though its immediate victim may be an individual. He
further substantiates his point of view through the following illustration
a murderer injures primarily a particular victim, but its
blatant disregard of human life puts it beyond a mater of mere compensation
between the murderer and the victim’s family.
Thus it becomes very important on behalf of
the society to punish the offenders. Punishment can be
used as a method of educing the incidence of criminal behavior either by
deterring the potential offenders or by incapacitating and preventing them from
repeating the offence or by reforming them into law-abiding citizens. Theories
of punishment, contain generally policies regarding theories of punishment
namely: Deterrent, Retributive, Preventive and Reformative.
Punishment, whether
legal or divine, needs justification. Because the justification of legal
punishment has been given greater consideration by philosophers than has the
justification of divine punishment by theologians, the philosophical concepts
and 'theories of punishment’ (i.e. the justifications) will be used as a basis
for considering divine punishment.
Many a time this punishment has been termed
as a mode of social protection. The affinity of punishment with many other
measures involving deprivation by the state morally recognized rights is
generally evident. The justifiability of these measures in particular cases may
well be controversial, but it is hardly under fire. The attempt to give
punishment the same justification for punishment as for other compulsory
measures imposed by the state does not necessarily involve a particular
standpoint on the issues of deterrence, reform or physical incapacitation.
Obviously the justification in terms of protection commits us to holding that
punishment may be effective in preventing social harms through one of these
methods.
As punishments generally punish the guilty
mind it becomes very important on the part of the researcher to what crime
really is. But it is quite difficult on the part of the researcher to say
whether or not there must be any place for the traditional forms of punishment.
In today’s world the major question that is raised by most of the penologist is
that how far are present ‘humane’ methods of punishment like the reformative
successful in their objective. It is observed that prisons have become a place
for breeding criminals not as a place of reformation as it was meant to be.
It may be clearly said that the enactment of
any law brings about two units in the society- the law-abiders and the
law-breakers. It is purpose of these theories of punishment to by any means
transform or change these law-breakers to the group of abiders. To understand
the topic the researcher would like to bring about a valid relation between
crime, punishment and the theories. For that purpose the project is divided into
three parts:
# Crime and Punishment
# Theories of punishment
# Conclusion
The researcher due to certain constraints of
limited time and knowledge is unable to cove the area of the evolution of these
theories separately but would include them in the second chapter. The researcher
would now like to move on to his first chapter in which he would be vividly
discussing ‘crime and punishment.’
The researcher in his first draft had
included the chapter on the evolution of the theories from the early ages to the
modern era, but due to certain limitations included them and discussed them
during the due course of the project.
Crime And Punishment
Crime:
n., & v.t. 1. Act (usu. grave offence) punishable by law; shameful act 2. charge
with or convict of offence.
Punishment: n. Punishing or being punished;
penalty inflicted on the offender;
Punish: 1. Cause to suffer for offence,
chastise, inflict penalty on offender for his crime.
One can surely observe how closely are crime
and punishment related. The researcher would in this chapter precisely like to
stress on this point itself.
Crime is behaviour or action that is
punishable by criminal law. A crime is a public, as opposed to a moral, wrong;
it is an offence committed against (and hence punishable by) the state or the
community at large. Many crimes are immoral, but not all actions considered
immoral are illegal.
In different legal systems the forms of
punishment may be different but it may be observed that all arise out of some
action or omission. All these constitute all moral as well as legal wrongs such
as murder, rape, littering, theft, trespass and many more. As crime is quite
different in different geographical area it is quite evident that the forms of
punishment would vary as it was mentioned earlier that punishment as well as
crime are socially determined. A type of action may be a crime in one society
but not in another. For example euthanasia is an offence in India, but in many
European coutries such as Holland it is legalized. But there are certain
offences which are recognized almost universally like murder.
Durkheim explains crime, as
crime exists in every society which do and do not have
laws, courts and the police. He asserts that all societies have crime, since all
societies involve a differentiation between two kinds of actions, those that are
allowed and those that are forbidden. He calls the latter type criminal.
Law is the string that binds society, and he
who attempts to break the string is a danger to the society as a whole and dealt
with sternly by the powerful arms of law. Punishment though most times confused
with imprisonment is something much different from it. Punishment though most
times confused only with sanctions may also be of moral nature like ostracism.
Punishment, whether legal or divine, needs justification.
Because the justification of legal punishment has been given greater
consideration by philosophers than has the justification of divine punishment by
theologians, the philosophical concepts and 'theories of punishment, (i.e. the
justifications) will be used as a basis for considering divine punishment.
A complete definition will now be made in
such a way as to include both legal and divine punishment. A.Flew first suggests
that punishment must be an evil, an unpleasantness to the victim. J. Mabbot
objects to the use of the word 'evil' in connection
with punishment. He maintains that 'evil' carries too much moral flavour and
also that it suggests positive suffering. Mabbot states: The
world is a worse place the more evil there is in it and perhaps the more
suffering. But it does not seem to me necessarily a worse place whenever men are
deprived of something they would like to retain; and this is the essence of
modern punishment. While deprivation may be a more appropriate
description of modern punishment this does not necessarily exempt it from being
an evil. Nor does the suggestion that 'evil' carries a moral flavour, for in
fact the word punishment itself carries a moral flavour. (Like 'evil',
punishment is not in itself a moral term but it is suggested that it usually
occurs in an ethical context.) While we must eventually come to some conclusion
as to whether punishment is an evil, it would be preferable at present to use,
as does W. Moberly, the slightly more neutral term 'ill'. Both of these thinkers
of punishment believe that the offender must be answerable for any wrong that he
has done. K. Baier explains punishment as law-making,
penalisation, finding guilty, pronouncing a sentence. In a legal context
law-making is a necessary condition, but it is possible to commit a wrongdoing
intentionally although no law has been made, in fact it is because certain acts
are considered wrong that laws are made in the first place. What is important to
note is that punishment is a conditional act and cannot be isolated from its
total context.
But Durkhaeim has a different approach to
punishment altogether. He treats punishment as the reaction of the society
against a crime. According to him a if punishment be a proportionate response to
the harm caused to the society then the extent of the punishment inflicted must
be clearly sorted out. He also stressed on the point that punishment can never
be calculated; it is an intensely emotional- sense of outrage- the desire to
exact punishment. He says, It is not the specific nature
or result of the offending action as such which matter, but he fact that the
action transgresses widely shared ad strongly held sentiments, whatever these
might be in any particular case. He explains that if punishment is a
reaction of the society against the offenders then it is generally in the form
of an outrage or anger thus rather being reparative or reformative becomes
punitive. This approach of the society towards the criminals is what makes us
treat them as outcasts and treated as an deviant from the social norms. This
two-fold approach has been criticized severely by various penologists, as at one
time there is the use of both reformative and retributive theories.
Punishment and crime are very strange
phenomena to deal with. It is only if the acts done are within the course of the
provisions provided under the Code then any benefits take out of it is not
questioned. But any action through which maybe the same benefit is gained still
the person may be punished as because his action was not within the scope of the
provisions. Also there are certain elements in the society who though do many
immoral acts but as because any provisions or sanctions are not mentioned so
that they can be punished they continue to do that act. One should not earn any
benefits or satisfaction out of such acts.
The legitimacy of any form of has always
been criticized. Though there are many legal coercive measures but it is quite
different from punishment. If the punishment were any retribution to an evil
done then regardless of any consequence it would try to end that evil in itself.
But if the objective of the punishment given is to prevent the crime from
further occurrence then it would rather than using coercive methods it would be
using persuasive measures and discourage the offender from committing that act
in the future. Treating punishment as a conventional device for the expression
of resentment, indignation, disappointment felt either by the sufferer and his
family or the punishing authority as such J.Feinberg argues that
certain kinds of severe treatment become symbolic of the
of the attitudes and judgement of the society or community in the face of the
wrongdoing, and constitute a stigma which castes shame and ignominy on the
individual on whom the punishment is applied. The distinctiveness of the
unpleasant measure could consist of the way of executing them. Thus,
summarizing the concept of punishment one can suggest that punishment includes
the following areas :
# Punishment inflicted is a feeling of
uncomfortable and unpleasant circumstances.
# It is a sequel of a wrongful act
# There must be some relationship between
the punishment inflicted and the crime committed.
# The punishment is a form by which a
criminal is made answerable to the society
Theories Of Punishment:
With change in the social structure the society has witnessed various punishment
theories and the radical changes that they have undergone from the traditional
to the modern level and the crucial problems relating to them. Kenny wrote:
"it cannot be said that the theories of criminal
punishment current amongst our judges and legislators have assumed...."either
a coherent or even a stable form. B.Malinowski believes
all the legally effective institutions....are....means of cutting short an
illegal or intolerable state of affairs, of restoring the equilibrium in the
social life and of giving the vent to he feelings of oppression and injustice
felt by the individuals.
The general view that
the researcher finds is that the researcher gathers is that the theories of
punishment being so vague are difficult to discuss as such. In the words of Sir
John Salmond, “The ends of criminal justice are four in number, and in respect
to the purposes served by the them punishment can be divided as:
1. Deterrent
2. Retributive
3. Preventive
4. Reformative
Of these aspects the first is the essential and the all-important one, the
others being merely accessory. Punishment before all things is deterrent, and
the chief end of the law of crime is to make the evil-doer an example and a
warning to all that are like-minded with him.
The researcher in this chapter would like to discuss the various theories and
explain the pros and cons of each theory. The researcher’s main aim in this
chapter is to show the evolution of the theories as such.
Deterrent Theory:
One of the primitive methods of punishments believes in the fact that if severe
punishments were inflicted on the offender would deter him form repeating that
crime. Those who commit a crime, it is assumed, derive a
mental satisfaction or a feeling of enjoyment in the act. To neutralize this
inclination of the mind, punishment inflicts equal quantum of suffering on the
offender so that it is no longer attractive for him to carry out such committal
of crimes. Pleasure and pain are two physical feelings or sensation that nature
has provided to mankind, to enable him to do certain things or to desist from
certain things, or to undo wrong things previously done by him. It is like
providing both a powerful engine and an equally powerful brake in the
automobile. Impelled by taste and good appetite, which are feelings of pleasure
a man over-eats. Gluttony and surfeit make him obese and he starts suffering
disease. This causes pain. He consults a doctor and thereafter starts dieting
. Thus the person before eating in the same way would think twice and may not at
all take that food. In social life punishment introduces the element of 'pain'
to correct the excess action of a person carried out by the impulse (pleasure)
of his mind. We all like very much to seize opportunities, but abhor when we
face threats. But in reality pain, threat or challenges actually strengthens and
purifies a man and so an organization
J. Bentham, as the
founder of this theory, states:
"General prevention ought to be the chief end of punishment as its real
justification. If we could consider an offence, which has beeen, committed as an
isolated fact, the like of which would never recur, punishment would be useless.
It would only be only adding one evil to another. But when we consider that an
unpunished crime leaves the path of crime open, not only to the same delinquent
but also to all those who may have the same motives and opportunities for
entering upon it, we perceive that punishment inflicted on the individual
becomes a source of security for all. That punishment which considered in itself
appeared base and repugnant to all generous sentiments is elevated to the first
rank of benefits when it is regarded not as an act of wrath or vengeance against
a guilty or unfortunate individual who has given way to mischievous
inclinations, but as an indispensable sacrifice to the common safety."
Bentham's theory was
based on a hedonistic conception of man and that man as such would be deterred
from crime if punishment were applied swiftly, certainly, and severely. But
being aware that punishment is an evil, he says,
If the evil of punishment exceeds the evil of the offence, the punishment will
be unprofitable; he will have purchased exemption from one evil at the expense
of another.
The basic idea of
deterrence is to deter both offenders and others from committing a similar
offence. But also in Bentham's theory was the idea that punishment would also
provide an opportunity for reform.
"While a person goes on
seeking pleasure, he also takes steps to avoid pain. This is a new system of
political philosophy and ethics developed by Jerome Bentham and John Stuart Mill
in the 19th century called Utilitarianism. It postulates human efforts towards
"maximization of pleasure and maximum minimization of pain" as the goal. "The
main ethical imperative of utilitarianism is: the greatest good for the largest
number of people; or the greatest number of goods for the greatest number of
people" The fear of consequent punishment at the hands of law should act as a
check from committing crimes by people. The law violator not merely gets
punishment, but he has to undergo an obnoxious process like arrest, production
before a magistrate, trial in a criminal court etc. that bring about a social
stigma to him as the accused. All these infuse a sense fear and pain and one
thinks twice before venturing to commit a crime, unless he is a hardcore
criminal, or one who has developed a habit for committing crimes. Deterrent
theory believes in giving exemplary punishment through adequate penalty."
In earlier days a
criminal act was considered to be due to the influence of some evil spirit on
the offender for which he was unwillingly was made to do that wrong. Thus to
correct that offender the society retorted to severe deterrent policies and
forms of the government as this wrongful act was take as an challenge to the God
and the religion.
But in spite of all
these efforts there are some lacunae in this theory. This theory is unable to
deter the activity of the hardcore criminals as the pain inflicted or even the
penalties are ineffective. The most mockery of this theory can be seen when the
criminals return to the prisons soon after their release, that is precisely
because as this theory is based on certain restrictions, these criminals are not
effected at all by these restrictions rather they tend to enjoy these
restrictions more than they enjoy their freedom.
Retributive Theory:
...An eye for an eye would turn the whole world blind-
Mahatma Gandhi
The most stringent and harsh of all theories retributive theory believes to end
the crime in itself. This theory underlines the idea of vengeance and revenge
rather than that of social welfare and security. Punishment of the offender
provides some kind solace to the victim or to the family members of the victim
of the crime, who has suffered out of the action of the offender and prevents
reprisals from them to the offender or his family. The only reason for keeping
the offender in prison under unpleasant circumstances would be the vengeful
pleasure of sufferer and his family. J.M.Finnis argues in favour of retributism
by mentioning it as a balance of fairness in the distribution of advantages and
disadvantages by restraining his will. Retributivists
believe that considerations under social protection may serve a minimal purpose
of the punishment. Traditional retributism relied on punishing the
intrinsic value of the offence and thus resort to very harsh methods.
This theory is based on the same principle as the deterrent theory, the
Utilitarian theory. To look into more precisely both these theories involve the
exercise of control over the emotional instinctual forces that condition such
actions. This includes our sense of hatred towards the criminals and a
reliance on him as a butt of aggressive outbursts.
Sir Walter Moberly
states that the punishment is deemed to give the men their dues. "Punishment
serves to express and to and to satisfy the righteous indignation which a
healthy community treats as transgression. As such it is an end in itself."
"The utilitarian
theories are forward looking; they are concerned with the consequences of
punishment rather than the wrong done, which, being in the past, cannot be
altered. A retributive theory, on the other hand, sees the primary justification
in the fact that an offence has been committed which deserves the punishment of
the offender." As Kant argues in a famous passage:
"Judicial punishment can never be used merely as a means to promote some other
good for the criminal himself or civil society, but instead it must in all cases
be imposed on him only on the ground that he has committed a crime; for a human
being can never be manipulated merely as a means to the purposes of someone
else... He must first of all be found to be deserving of punishment before any
consideration is given of the utility of this punishment for himself or his
fellow citizens."
"Kant argues that
retribution is not just a necessary condition for punishment but also a
sufficient one. Punishment is an end in itself. Retribution could also be said
to be the 'natural' justification" , in the sense that man thinks it quite
natural and just that a bad person ought to be punished and a good person
rewarded.
However
'natural' retribution might seem, it can also be
seen as Bentham saw it, that is as adding one evil to another, base and
repugnant, or as an act of wrath or vengeance. Therefore as we consider divine
punishment we must bear in mind, as Rowell says,
The doctrine of hell was framed in terms of a retributive theory of
punishment, the wicked receiving their just deserts, with no thought of the
possible reformation of the offender. In so far as there was a deterrent
element, it related to the sanction hell provided for ensuring moral conduct
during a man's earthly life.
Thus the researcher
concludes that this theory closely related to that of expiation as the pain
inflicted compensates for the pleasure derived by the offender. Though not in
anymore contention in the modern arena but its significance cannot be totally
ruled out as fear still plays an important role in the minds of various first
time offenders. But the researcher feels that the basis of this theory i.e.
vengeance is not expected in a civilized society. This theory has been severely
criticized by modern day penologists and is redundant in the present
punishments.
Preventive Theory:
Unlike the former theories, this theory aims to prevent the crime rather then
avenging it. Looking at punishments from a more humane perspective it rests on
the fact that the need of a punishment for a crime arises out of mere social
needs i.e. while sending the criminals to the prisons the society is in turn
trying to prevent the offender from doing any other crime and thus protecting
the society from any anti-social elements.
Fitchte in order to
explain this in greater details puts forward the an illustration, An owner of
the land puts an notice that ‘trespassers’ would be prosecuted. He does not want
an actual trespasser and to have the trouble and expense of setting the law in
motion against him. He hopes that the threat would render any such action
unnecessary; his aim is not to punish trespass but to prevent it. But if
trespass still takes place he undertakes prosecution. Thus the instrument which
he devised originally consist of a general warning and not any particular
convictions
Thus it must be quite
clear now by the illustration that the law aims at providing general threats but
not convictions at the beginning itself. Even utilitarian such as Bentham have
also supported this theory as it has been able to discourage the criminals from
doing a wrong and that also without performing any severity on the criminals.
The present day prisons are fallout of this theory. The preventive theory can be
explained in the context of imprisonment as separating the criminals from the
society and thus preventing any further crime by that offender and also by
putting certain restrictions on the criminal it would prevent the criminal from
committing any offence in the future. Supporters of this theory may also take
Capital Punishment to be a part of this theory. A serious and diligent
rehabilitation program would succeed in turning a high percentage of criminals
away from a life of crime. There are, however, many reasons why rehabilitation
programs are not commonly in effect in our prisons. Most politicians and a high
proportion of the public do not believe in rehabilitation as a desirable goal.
The idea of rehabilitation is considered mollycoddling. What they want is
retribution, revenge, punishment and suffering.
Thus one an easily say
that preventive theory though aiming at preventing the crime to happen in the
future but it still has some aspects which are questioned by the penologists as
it contains in its techniques which are quite harsh in nature. The major problem
with these type of theories is that they make the criminal more violent rather
than changing him to a better individual. The last theory of punishment being
the most humane of all looks into this aspect.
Reformative Theory:
But that is the beginning of a new story--the story of the
gradual Renewal of a man, the story of his gradual regeneration, of his Passing
from one world into another, of his initiation into a new Unknown life.
The author of the above
excerpt in this concluding paragraph underlines the basic principle of the
reformative theory. It emphasizes on the renewal of the criminal and the
beginning of a new life for him.
The most recent and the
most humane of all theories is based on the principle of reforming the legal
offenders through individual treatment. Not looking to criminals as inhuman this
theory puts forward the changing nature of the modern society where it presently
looks into the fact that all other theories have failed to put forward any such
stable theory, which would prevent the occurrence of further crimes. Though it
may be true that there has been a greater onset of crimes today than it was
earlier, but it may also be argued that many of the criminals are also getting
reformed and leading a law-abiding life all-together. Reformative techniques are
much close to the deterrent techniques.
Reform in the deterrent
sense implied that through being punished the offender recognized his guilt and
wished to change. The formal and impressive condemnation by society involved in
punishment was thought to be an important means of bring about that recognition.
Similarly, others may be brought to awareness that crime is wrong through
another's punishment and, as it were, 'reform' before they actually commit a
crime. But, although this is indeed one aspect of rehabilitation, as a theory
rehabilitation is more usually associated with treatment of the offender. A few
think that all offenders are 'ill' and need to be 'cured' but the majority of
criminologists see punishment as a means of educating the offender. This has
been the ideal and therefore the most popular theory in recent years. However,
there is reason to believe this theory is in decline and Lord Windlesham has
noted that if public opinion affects penal policy, as he thinks it does, then
there will be more interest shown in retribution in the future.
This theory aims at
rehabilitating the offender to the norms of the society i.e. into law-abiding
member. This theory condemns all kinds of corporal punishments. These aim at
transforming the law-offenders in such a way that the inmates of the peno-correctional
institutions can lead a life like a normal citizen. These prisons or
correctional homes as they are termed humanly treat the inmates and release them
as soon as they feel that they are fit to mix up with the other members of the
community. The reformation generally takes place either through probation or
parole as measures for reforming criminals. It looks at the seclusion of the
criminals from the society as an attempt to reform them and to prevent the
person from social ostracism. Though this theory works stupendously for the
correction of juveniles and first time criminals, but in the case of hardened
criminals this theory may not work with the effectiveness. In these cases come
the importance of the deterrence theories and the retributive theories. Thus
each of these four theories have their own pros and cons and each being
important in it, none can be ignored as such.
Conclusion
The researcher at the end of this project finds punishment as a method of social
control. He would like to summarize his understanding about the teories of
punishment:
# There is an attempt to portray punishments as a method of
inflicting of unpleasant circumstances over the offender.
# Though certain theories like the reformative and preventive rely
upon humanitarian modes of punishment, but these have a weakness against the
hardcore criminals.
#Punishments such as the retributive and deterrence though the use
of fear as an instrument to curb the occurrence of crime helps in controlling
the criminals up to a certain extent. As these employ the idea of revenge and
vengeance these are much more harsher than others.
The researcher would
like to add his own views on this very controversial topic. We all know that
truth is stranger than fiction and so is the practice of these theories. Though
prisons are meant to be the place where the criminals would be corrected or for
that case deterred from committing a wrong in the future, but the present day
witnesses the prisons to have become redundant in their objective and becoming
sites of breeding for hardcore criminals. This is a fact that the penologists
must look into. Furthermore the techniques applied in executing the punishment
are not fool proof, for e.g. the criminals are able to carry on their illegal
activities even during serving the period of sentence. Though in theory all of
the punishments discussed above may seem perfect if used collectively, but this
all becomes a mere joke when tried to implicate in the practical sense.
