| | |  an eye for an eye: Encyclopedia II - Capital punishment - Views and opinions concerning the death penaltySupport for the death penalty varies widely, and it can be a highly contentious political issue, particularly in democracies that use it.

| | | | an eye for an eye: Encyclopedia II - Retributive justice - The subject in modern times In practice, punishment has this effect only indirectly.
