Answer to Question 1

Retribution is the appropriated term for this simple vengeance, founded on the notion that those who have committed crimes should suffer for the harm they have caused others. Modern proponents of retribution argue that the punishment should fit the crime already committed rather than future crimes that the criminal or others might commit. In contrast to retribution, which is designed to redress crimes already committed, deterrence endeavors to prevent future crimes by creating a disincentive to violate the law by threatening punishment.
