Büntett És Büntetés

<p><i>Bűntett És Büntetés</i> examines the principles of criminal justice advocating for reforms based on reason and human rights. Written by Cesare Beccaria and translated by János Tarnai this work challenges the brutal practices prevalent in 18th-century legal systems arguing for punishments that are proportionate to the crime and designed to deter future offenses rather than inflict pain for its own sake.<br/><br/>Beccaria's treatise is a foundational text in criminology and legal philosophy influencing penal reform movements across Europe and beyond. It emphasizes the importance of due process the presumption of innocence and the right to a fair trial. This edition makes Beccaria's important work accessible to Hungarian readers continuing to spark debate on the role of law and justice in society.</p><p>This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
