Imposing punishments on adults Abstract This thesis deals with the imposition of punishments on adult offenders. The introductory chapters are devoted first to the definition of the concept of punishment and its position in relation to protections measures, and then to the system of punishment, within which the different types of punishment and their classification according to various criteria are discussed. A substantial part of the work is devoted to the interpretation of the issue of the purpose of punishment, which is the starting point for the imposition of punishment. The purpose of punishment is described using the three main theories of punishment, namely retributive, utilitarian and mixed theories. These theories, their approach to the purpose of punishment and their historical development are discussed in more detail, including their various modifications.
