Abstract

Abstract By offering a critical analysis of Nicolás Maloberti’s recent theory and justification of punishment, this article accounts for a series of principles and considerations that any liberal and Lockean theory of punishment must take seriously. This article contends that Locke’s conception of the state – an institution grounded on the right to punish violators of natural rights – and the basic character of the right to property within Locke’s scheme of rights are elements that should lead us to affirm that no genuine liberal theory of punishment can dispense with the political character of the right to punish.

走向自由主义的惩罚理论:洛克、财产与个人主义

本文通过对Nicolás Maloberti最近的惩罚理论和正当性的批判性分析，阐述了一系列自由主义和洛克式的惩罚理论必须认真对待的原则和考虑。本文认为，洛克的国家概念——一种以惩罚违反自然权利的人的权利为基础的制度——以及洛克权利体系中财产权的基本特征，是引导我们确认没有任何真正的自由主义惩罚理论可以免除惩罚权利的政治特征的要素。
