欧洲启蒙思想家死刑正义观的历史考察

欧洲启蒙思想家的思想资源是我国学界目前讨论死刑存废的主要知识依据。概括起来，启蒙思想家的死刑正义观主要包括从社会契约论、自由意志论、死刑误判难纠三个角度讨论得出的死刑或存或废的不同结论。这些结论并非都是绝对的知识权威，我国部分学者对启蒙思想家的观点也存在某种误读。

of European Enlightenment Ideologists from the Historical Perspective

The maintenance or deposition of capital penalty has been discussed currently in Chinese learning circles mainly on the basis of the thought wealth of the European enlightenment ideologists. In summary, the enlightenment ideologists concluded their justice viewpoint about whether to maitain or deposit the capital penalty from the aspects of social contract theory, indeterminism and impossibility to remedy wrong judgments. Not all of these conclusions are absolutely authorized. Some Chinese scholars has mistaken those views of the enlightenment ideologist to a certain extent.
