I came across the article that was written by one of the freelancers for BBC some time ago. I still remember it in spite of the fact that the topic of morality and ethics in regards to capital punishment is extremely popular in political, social and other debates. This one stands out of the crowd. And the reason for that is the objectivity of the report. It is, probably, the first and the only individual work that provides almost perfectly objective view on the ethical aspects of this issue.
I was trying to learn from this report and make myself more reasonable and logical when analysing the issues related to both moral and ethical aspects of capital punishment. First of all, it is very interesting to discover the history of capital punishment in different countries. While not that long ago death penalty was one of the most common punishment for criminals and political opposition, today’s reality does not accept it. The world and values of people have changed and it is exceptionally interesting to understand that pre-conditions of practicing capital punishment is as essential as re-viewing and re-analyzing of the consequences and reasons for its abolishment.
