Abstract

The birth and transformation of punishment is the outcome of other social phenomena, and in particular the perception of Public Opinion about the nature and function of punishment. Due to this dependence, the role of Public Opinion can not be disregarded when it comes to Criminal Policy making. Field Surveys are a way to decipher the criminal will of the community. The present paper, using a descriptive-analytical method, aims at analyzing the degree of convergence of Public Opinion with corporal punishments from a socio-cognitive perspective. The statistical population is all citizens of Mashhad in 13 areas in 1395. Data collection was done through researcher-made Survey questionnaire. The results of the research show that the extent to which Public Opinion agrees with severe punishments in crimes which directly offend public feelings, such as rape, acid attack, and embezzlement is high. On the contrary, in crimes based on satisfaction (sodomy) and in crimes with socioeconomic grounds (drug-related crimes and robbery), the level of opposition to severe punishment is high. These diverse views and tendencies of the public should be considered in criminal legislation. Not paying attention to these tendencies would trigger a chain of public resistance against a formal Criminal Policy.
