L'humanisation de la justice criminelle dans la France desLumieres
PublikacjaIn pre-revolutionary France criminal justice is regulated by the Ordinance Louis XIV of 1670. This Ordinance provides for torture as the major method of investigation and for the death penalty as the most commonly used form of punishment. One of the major concerns of French eighteenthcentury philosophers is therefore a radical reform of criminal justice and its humanisation in the spirit of Enlightenment. Many philosophers take...
