Note 90 — Chapter IV · THE ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICE
Reading edition
Kant’s Rechtslehre (Hastie’s trans. p. 195). The like opinion is expressed in Woolsey’s Political Science, I. p. 334: “The theory that in punishing an evildoer the state renders to him his deserts, is the only one that seems to have a solid foundation.... It is fit and right that evil, physical or mental, suffering or shame, should be incurred by the wrongdoer.” See also Fry, Studies by the Way (The Theory of Punishment), pp. 43–71.
