Physical and mental punishment: an effective solution to prevent the commission of crimes? What is your opinion on this aspect!!!?

avatar

Physical and mental punishment are forms of punishment that have been used for centuries to prevent the commission of crimes. However, the effectiveness of these forms of punishment is a subject of global debate. Do you think physical and mental punishment are effective in preventing crime? What do you think about this!! After all, why do you think some people commit crimes even though they know they will be punished in the end?

I feel they are good when it comes to stopping and preventing crimes but let’s have in mind that too much of everything is bad

Have you ever thought that maybe by punishing a person with violence you will do nothing but make the situation worse ~ in general there are people who, due to the violence they were exposed to, they will end up doing worse... but simply out of their stubbornness they will try to get revenge in a rather embarrassing way. !PGM !LOOLZ !MEME !HUG

This is a great question ! It's a subject that can't easily be answered in a single post, so here is my take on it, which may be controversial....

The effectiveness of punishment for crimes needs to be looked at from two perspectives. The impact on the individual criminal who has been caught, and the impact on society as a whole.

On the individual criminal, punishment often appears to be ineffective. Sometimes this may be because the criminal is too stupid to understand the risk or consequences of being caught. Sometimes it is because a crime is committed without forethought or knowledge - crimes of passion where there may not be pre-meditation, breaches of the tax code where the law may be so complex as to be unintelligible, or crimes where the offence is purely subjective and arbitrary ("thought crimes", like the recent rash of cases here in the UK where people have been arrested for voicing opinions on social media that don't fit the narrative). There are also cases where a criminal is mentally ill or so narcissistic that they just don't believe they'll ever be caught, or if they are that they will be able to outwit the justice system.

For all these cases, punishment is no deterrent. Additionally, there is no deterrent if a criminal perceives the degree of punishment to be out of sync with the crime. Littering should not be a capital offence ! But on the other hand, there was a famous case recently in the Hatton Garden robbery. The robbers were all in their 60's and 70's. They calculated (quite rightly) that if they got away with it, they'd be wealthy enough to live their lives out in comfort, and if they got caught then they'd get better food, accommodation and general standard of living than trying to survive on the frankly appalling UK state pension.

But if the punishment is in step with the crime committed, justice is speedy but fair, and the laws being enforced are seen as reasonable and enforced equally on all

However, for society at large, punishment for crime can be effective. Again, provided that it is commensurate with the crime and enforced equally. If justice can be seen to be done, it can strengthen social cohesion and reduce the risk that people will feel that they might as well commit a crime because the state doesn't care. It also reduces the risk of both casual crime and mass outbreaks of disorder. But it does require that the laws being enforced are seen to be reasonable, which is why there is such a groundswell of support for the activities of the Bladerunners against the London ULEZ; their actions are seen by many as those of freedom fighters rather than common vandals. It also requires that no-one is seen to be above the law, and (as can be seen with "Partygate") this is no longer the case in the UK or much of Europe, where the right connections and political views appear to make certain people untouchable.
