Paying “Decent Respect” to the World Opinion on the Death Penalty, 35 U.C. Davis L. Rev. 1085 (2002)
Abstract
The question I want to ask is whether we, as Americans, pay decent respect to the opinions of humankind in our administration of the death penalty. If, as I believe, we do not, what significance should this have for the constitutionality of capital punishment under the Eighth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution?
