The Ministry of the Interior conducted an investigation on the public's views on the death penalty from April to June last year. More than three -quarters of the local residents interviewed agreed to deal with severe crimes on the death penalty, which was nearly four percentage points higher than the investigation in 2021.Among the respondents who did not agree with the forced death penalty, 21.8%tended to accept the death penalty as appropriate, and 56.1%recognized the life imprisonment instead of the death penalty.Coincidentally, the Taiwan Constitutional Court recently ruled that the death penalty was in line with the Constitution, but it should be as limited to the scope of application. In other words, the ruling of the death penalty must consider the type and requirements of the crime more carefully.This judgment ended the social controversy that Taiwan had abolished the death penalty for more than 20 years.
There are many cases of abolition of abolition in Asian society. Malaysia officially abolished the forced death penalty last year. Although South Korea has not abolished, it has stopped implementing since 1998.However, there are still many democratic countries that maintain the death penalty, including Japan, India and most Southeast Asian countries.Looking at the world, more than half of the country abolished the death penalty, and the death penalty was not related to the rich and the poor. The most important thing is the result of the concept of society and the political game.
The death penalty is the limit of legal punishment. Once the verdict and execution, there is no way to return. This is the main reason for many countries to decide to abolish.In modern times, the changes in the concept of death of public power to deprive life and then form a movement that advocates abolition, which is directly related to the expansion and enrichment of the concept of human rights.It is also believed that the death penalty cannot be contained in the actual situation; but some research data also pointed out that the death penalty can indeed scare serious crimes such as killing or drug trafficking.Singapore data proves that after the implementation of more than 1.2 kilograms of opium in 1990, the number of smuggling opium decreased significantly by more than 60 % in the following years.In addition, Singapore's arrested drug addicts (that is, drug trafficking victims) also reduced from 6,000 people in the 1990s, reducing 3,000 to 3,500 people every year after the population.Therefore, the deterrent effect of the death penalty to drugboders does exist. As long as it can strengthen law enforcement and improve the certainty (that is, the high arrest rate) can achieve the deterrent effect of criminal psychology and reduce crimes.This effect is suitable for drug trafficking and other major crimes.
The abolition of the death penalty is valued by some intellectuals in many countries, and it has a direct relationship with the active promotion of private groups.But like many controversial social movements, both sides of the front and back use data that is good for themselves, trying to persuade the public, and then affect decision -making.There are also people who have long advocated abandonment for a long time, but they have not yet become a climate. For the government, before the outbreak of the dispute, actively conducting frequent and representative public opinion surveys can display the accurate public opinion of Singapore abroad.Promote persuasion and credibility.
77.4%of the residents interviewed in Singapore agreed or agreed to punish serious crimes with death penalty, including trafficking a large number of drugs, deliberately shot or attempt to shoot and hurt people, and the important basis behind it was that all behind them were all placed in all place in all in all.The outstanding public security environment in front of residents and passengers.High public opinion supports the death penalty, and may be regarded by some foreigners as conservative outdated, but this shows that local society has its own choices and does not blindly follow the trend of other countries.With social concepts, including defending the interests of the majority of people in the society.Behind this public opinion is not to identify with cruelty, but to reflect the expression of the Asian concept of justice.When the major crime of deliberately caused the death of others, how the human rights of the killer and the victims clearly divide the human rights and how to solve the problem with love. In fact, it has entered the field of philosophical concepts. It is often a gap with legal enforcement and public perception.Taiwan's long -term polls show that the ratio of abolition of abolition is actually as high as 80 %.In any society, if you only rely on the volume of vocal volume to be abolished, regardless of public opinion and the true emotions of the people, maybe it is a way to violate the mainstream public opinion.
It is advocated that human rights and caring people may emphasize that how to maintain the highest rigorousness in the process of trial and execution of the death penalty, reduce the scope of the death penalty as much as possible, and give the defendant to the greatest doubtful interests, so that the judge has sufficient tailoringPower, these are all practices that can be considered to avoid grievances.
The family members of the victims of many abolition of the country's crimes are not doubtful whether they are reflected in their legal system and public opinion structure.Of course, life and death are the biggest things in life. It is also necessary to pay attention to whether the social mechanism can provide more choices, help and support for the people from life to death.The society must have a mechanism that helps people who help the footsteps like the yellow ribbon, and there must be action to avoid the abyss of the lack of resource -lacking.Successive prevention measures can avoid more people from being in a dilemma that must be suffered by death. This is the goal that is in line with social justice.
