Tartalmi kivonat:In 1839/40, the Parliament decided to send a national electorate to modernise and codify the Hungarian penal system. The law also provided the board to declare its opinion on goals to be adopted to achieve the aim of punishment, that is, it had to submit a plan for the introduction of a modern prison system. In this context, the Diet also made it its task to substantially reform the system of penalties. It goes without saying that the introduction of imprisonment as a punishment had a fundamental impact on the system of punishments; its relationship with capital, corporal and honour-related punishments had to be clarified. The main question was 'where, how many and how to establish detention facilities'62 but the new prison system(s) also changed the proportion and importance of other punishments. Thus, the board came to the question of capital punishment and, by adopting one of the most recent philosophical view on punishments, proposed the complete abolition of it. During the debate on the Criminal Code, the lower house of Parliament also supported the abolition of execution from the penal system, but the plan was defeated upon the opposition of the peerage backed by the court.
