Retributive Punishment

Retributive Punishment is a theory of criminal penalty that belongs to the class of normative justifications for punishment, distinguished by its assertion that offenders ought to be punished in proportion to their moral desert, primarily because they have violated the rights of others and thereby forfeited their own claim to immunity from sanction.
