This paper deals with the history of capital punishment in South Africa and its historical background in Britain where it was abolished, except for a few instances, because it was found to serve no purpose which could not be served by other forms of punishment. In South Africa, capital punishment is a legal punishment form. Prior to 1290, C(lpital punishment was mandatory for murder, except in a few exceptional cases. Its application was amended by the Criminal Procedure Amendment Act, 107 of 1990. In terms of this Act, capital punishment was made discretionary for all capital offences., The new provisions do not remove all arguments against capital punishment. Consequently this paper recommends that capital p~shment sb_ould J:>~ _abolished. Life imprisonment without the possibility of parole is an effective alternative that will protect society and satisfy aggrieved parties. Life imprisonment has none of the problems that are normally associated with capital punishment. / Criminal & Procedural Law / L.L.M.

Racial discrimination in capital punishment has been documented from the 1700s to today. Among the 32 states that still have the death penalty, some have implemented measures at a legislative or judicial level to prevent the arbitrary imposition of the death penalty. The goal of this thesis is to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the result of one such effort, the North Carolina Racial Justice Act. Doing so will help determine if this is a model that other states should replicate, and if so, how it should be altered for a successful reimplementation.
