Abstract: This article brings into discussion the institutionalized practice of capital punishment. Due to the fact that this type of sanctioning treatment is still used in different countries around the globe, and the fact that there is a considerable number of doctrinal opinions on the abolition of this mode of repression or not, the present material will address the problem from the perspective of several comparative opinions. Finally, the paper will highlight the importance of a global unitary practice on the abolition of the death penalty, the importance of this desirability of abolition being linked to issues of imperfect justice and discrimination.
