当前,人权越来越成为人们关注的主题;而生命权是人权最基本也是最核心的内容之一,死刑的存在似乎与人权保障的关系是不可调和的。其实不然,本文认为主张废止死刑或保留死刑都是站在人权保障的立场上加以考虑,都是以保护公民的基本人权为内容。

At present, human rights are more and more the subject of attention; and the right to life is one of the most fundamental and core elements of human rights. The existence of the death penalty seems irreconcilable with the protection of human rights. In actual fact, this article argues that advocating the abolition of the death penalty or the retention of the death penalty are all considered on the standpoint of human rights protection, all of which are based on the protection of citizens’ basic human rights.
