Abstract

The Metaphysics of Morals develops Kant’s Law theory. Kant emphasizes his arguments within the discussion he hold with Beccaria. Not only concerning the death penalty, but also in relation to the foundations of punishment and criminal law. Particularly, he develops a deep reflection on equality and freedom. These both concepts are analyzed in this essay. To do this, we will focus on the Kantian approach to two key issues in the discussion of the criminal doctrine like the death penalty and the abortion
