Capital Punishment and Lay Participation in Japan -- 6. The Death Penalty and Democracy.This open access book provides a comparative perspective on capital punishment in Japan and the United States. Alongside the US, Japan is one of only a few developed democracies in the world which retains capital punishment and continues to carry out executions on a regular basis. There are some similarities between the two systems of capital punishment but there are also many striking differences. These include differences in capital jurisprudence, execution method, the nature and extent of secrecy surrounding death penalty deliberations and executions, institutional capacities to prevent and discover wrongful convictions, orientations to lay participation and to victim participation, and orientations to “democracy” and governance. Johnson also explores several fundamental issues about the ultimate criminal penalty, such as the proper role of citizen preferences in governing a system of punishment and the relevance of the feelings of victims and survivors.Palgrave Advances in Criminology and Criminal Justice in AsiaCriminologyLaw—AsiaCorrectionsPunishmentHuman rightsVictimologyCrime—Sociological aspectsAsian Criminologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1BC000Prison and Punishmenthttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1B9000Human Rights and Crime https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1BB020Victimologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1B1040Crime and Societyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1B3000Human Rightshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R19020CriminologyLaw—AsiaCorrectionsPunishmentHuman rightsVictimologyCrime—Sociological aspectsCriminology.Law—Asia.Corrections.Punishment.Human rights.Victimology.Crime—Sociological aspects.Asian Criminology.Prison and Punishment.Human Rights and Crime .Victimology.Crime and Society.Human Rights.364.095Johnson David Tauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut149021MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910366573103321The Culture of Capital Punishment in Japan2251270UNINA
