Real Life Situation -23 condemned criminals were sentenced to death in December 30, 1997, which was the last death sentence in South Korea until now. -There has been no capital punishment taking place since the year 1997 when President Kim Dae Joong came to power. -Amnesty International now classifies South Korea as an abolitionist country in practice. Capital Punishment in Korea

Global Death Sentence

Knowledge Issue To what extent can capital punishment be justified?

WOK-Language&Reason The legally authorized killing of a condemned criminal as retribution. Therefore, a death sentenced criminal must be put to death as the corresponding retribution according to the law. On the other hand, “Sanctity of Life” still comes to the question My definition of Capital Punishment

WOK-Emotion Family members of the victims are furious about this and do not consider murderers as humans. However, they are criticized for being only emotional.

AOK-History President Kim Dae Joong was also sentenced to death

AOK-Ethics Utilitarianism

A sacrifice of criminals will bring a greater happiness Potential crimes that death sentenced criminals might produce will be prevented.

Knowledge Issue To what extent can capital punishment be justified?

Answer to the Knowledge Issue will depend on which perspective people take.

Knower’s perspective Capital punishment cannot be justified to any extent. However, the family members of the victims must be taken care of as well as the criminals.

Limitations However, I have experienced neither what it’s like to be a family member of a victim acquaintance nor the feeling of being a murderer. Thus, my perspective only relies on secondary information.
