Answer to Question 1

T

Answer to Question 2

ANS:
Everyone who accepts the retributive view of punishment believes that wrongdoers must be punished in ways that fit their crimes. On a literal retributivism, we should do to criminals precisely the same things they have done to others. On proportional retributivism, what matters is simply that the punishment imposed is on a par with the crime that was committed.
