The impact of Roman criminal law on neighboring countries in the century?
The expansion of the Roman Empire brought with it many negative effects, including the enslavement of large numbers of commoners and class inequality. Although Rome was a leader in technology and culture, its background in torture was also known to the world.
In order to punish a person, the Romans usually experimented with slaves, using cruel instruments of torture. In this case, very few people survive, and the mortality rate is as high as 99 percent.
Society did not know that in addition to being unique in their behavior, the Romans also had a series of methods of disposing of people, such as amputation and castration. Only after successful trials can these "flavorings" be put into society.
Although slaves are essentially human beings, they are merely instruments in the face of profit. Torture in Rome was not directly harmful, but through subtle means, a form of oppression and exploitation that has been emulated many times by other countries and still has a unique place in the 21st century.
The nail rack was one of the most commonly used punishments in ancient Rome and one of the highest penal codes, revealing the great and cruel way of life in ancient Rome.
The penal system of the Roman Empire: from the primitive penal system to the perfect systemRome had set some basic torture from the early days of its creation, but these punishments were only preliminary, and a perfect penal system was formed in the process of continuous improvement.
At first, the criminal law had a strong superstition and religious color, and people mainly believed in the ** religion and Catholicism represented by Jesus, believing that mistakes were a symbol given by God, and the most severe punishment must be used to warn those who make mistakes.
By the time of Italy, Rome's penal system had been perfected, including the death penalty, arrest, caning, confiscation of personal property and land, and the severance of all contact with the outside world.
These measures are designed to make people remember the cost of mistakes.
Under the continuous strengthening of the centralized power of the monarchy, the continuous improvement of criminal law and the expansion of rights have led to a series of institutionalized and standardized criminal law systems. During the imperial period, criminal law was divided into primary, intermediate, and heavy punishments, which were divided in order of priority.
The first sentence applies to a person who has been sentenced to death for a crime, and different ways of dealing with the death penalty have given rise to different interpretive frameworks. Persons sentenced to death are generally civilians, slaves or persons of low social status, and are subject to the punishment of the first sentence.
The first punishment, as a form of punishment, brings people not only physical torture, but also mental torture. It achieves punishment by exploiting the flesh, which is extremely cruel and dehumanizing.
However, in criminal law, the first sentence is not accepted. The reason is that it uses the laws that people generally know and admire to use each other, which to a certain extent leads to a change in people's thinking.
This is also one of the main reasons why criminal law finally withdrew from the stage of history. In addition to the first sentence, medium and heavy sentences are also common punishments. Compared with heavy punishment, medium punishment is more humane and is a relatively mild way of survival.
Heavy punishment is aimed at depriving others of their lives, causing great physical destruction to people. These include burning at the stake, steaming, roasting, and punishing. Burning at the stake is to keep the prisoner in an iron cage, light a candle, and then seal the cage and place the prisoner in it.
This form of punishment is extremely cruel and a distortion of human nature.
The process involves placing the prisoner in a cage, burning him to death, and then introducing the fire from the cage into the vial, where the ashes are removed after it has cooled. These ashes were used as experimental tools and on the battlefield **, which were used by soldiers.
Steaming is to wash the prisoner and put it in a cage with a temperature of 80, and then nail a cross inside it, and put it on wood to make his limbs stiff.
The cross became a common killing tool in Rome and is said to have been influenced by Jesus. This criminal law mechanism has a profound impact on citizens and the State. In ancient China, prisoners with unpardonable sins had to be deprived of their right to life through state violence, while prisoners with lesser crimes but not the death penalty could be exiled to other countries and become slaves with unpardonable crimes.
For more than 300 years, exile has been seen as a legal institution, established by law, and the most plausible symbolic system of the 21st century. However, from the point of view of the population, the system of exile is not entirely legal, because it exists at the same time as the oppression and exploitation of people.
In many countries such as Greece, Italy, Egypt, Athens, etc., private or public executions are not allowed, and criminal law is a double-edged sword in these countries, with both advantages and disadvantages.
Criminal law has a unique influence in transforming people's preconceived notions, guiding them on the right track, and facilitating a shift from resistance to compliance. However, in the eyes of the Romans, this approach also had its drawbacks.
It will bring physical torture to people, make people struggle in the world of life and death, and finally end in regret. In addition, both slaves and commoners lacked legal protection to some extent, especially commoners, whose opposition and discontent could be considered unjustified and even suppressed by the rebellious class, leaving no one to protect.
This is also a big reason why they don't trust their own country.
Ancient Rome changed the cultural landscape in the 15th century, and its influence on the modern cultural system is self-evident. Before the 21st century, these seemingly harsh criminal laws were the cornerstone of social stability, the basic guarantee of people's living standards, and the prerequisite for society to live and work in peace and contentment.
Although these criminal laws were frightening to the people at the time, they still have a huge impact on today's culture. They not only reflect the ancient system of rules, but also indicate the maturity and completeness of the ancient criminal law system, and the influence and impact of this maturity should not be underestimated.
Superstition can lead to extreme irrationality, incur abyssal disasters, affect people's lives, degrade morality, and make people fall into a bottomless abyss from which they cannot turn over. In short, the use of such methods as first, middle, and heavy punishment to oppress people's hearts shows the hypocrisy, cruelty, and unknown side of Roman torture, which is not only cruel, but also pushes people to the limit, and finally falls silent and dusty in the dissipating time.
In ancient Rome, penal strategies were seen as an important means of maintaining social order. These strategies were guided by the Ancient Roman Penal Strategies and included corporal punishment, fines, exile, etc.
Among them, Roman torture is one of the most representative punishments, which is also described in detail in "A Brief History of Human Cruelty". However, these penal tactics are now seen as cruel and inhumane.
