On Crimes and Punishments does not only advance a proposal of criminal law reform: it runs over the ideological counterforts of power, accrediting a new vision of the civitas. In the cultural battle for the valorization of individual freedom, Beccaria exploits in an original way the emancipatory value of the social contract doctrine. To examine the normative implications of his peculiar contractualism allows one to highlight the axiological features of a discourse characterized by radical requests for social and legal reform.

Abstract
On Crimes and Punishments does not only advance a proposal of criminal law reform: it runs over the ideological counterforts of power, accrediting a new vision of the civitas. In the cultural battle for the valorization of individual freedom, Beccaria exploits in an original way the emancipatory value of the social contract doctrine. To examine the normative implications of his peculiar contractualism allows one to highlight the axiological features of a discourse characterized by radical requests for social and legal reform.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
