This book explores the pros and cons of the death penalty and the
history of capital punishment. In this context, it puts a special
emphasis on the situation in Hungary, where, amongst its neighbors,
in recent years the demand for the reestablishment of the death
penalty has received the strongest political support from many
pro-government politicians. Toth presents tendencies toward
abolition of the death penalty and analyzes the arguments by which
the death penalty can, in principle, be criticized or even
defended. The book presents the main issues of the death penalty,
arguments of both abolitionists and retentionists, and reviews the
modern history of this sanction. It does not seek to convince the
reader of the correctness or wrongness of the death penalty, but it
presents both sides of the argument and their standpoints, and
leaves the reader to decide. It encourages informed debate and
discussion.
