Abstract

In December 2015, Ireland became the 47th country to prohibit all corporal punishment of children, abolishing the common law defence of “reasonable chastisement”. This article tells the story of this momentous cultural and legislative change from the perspective of the Senator who championed the reform in the Irish Parliament. From the roots of the English common law defence through revelations of endemic violence against children to human rights rulings and courageous tenacity, the journey to ultimately achieving equal protection for children in Ireland is fully documented.
“为什么我们几年前不这么做?”:《爱尔兰禁止一切体罚儿童之旅》
2015年12月,爱尔兰成为第47个禁止一切体罚儿童的国家,废除了普通法中“合理惩罚”的辩护。本文从支持爱尔兰议会改革的参议员的角度讲述了这一重大的文化和立法变革的故事。从英国普通法辩护的根源,到对儿童的地方性暴力行为的揭露,再到人权裁决和勇敢的韧劲,爱尔兰儿童最终实现平等保护的历程得到了充分的记录。
