Аннотация

Death penalty attitude constitutes one of the elements of penal attitudes that could be defined as "an attitude towards the goals of punishment, specified forms of penal sanctions, the intensity of penal sanctions and specific sentencing policies" (Adriaenssen & Aertsen 2015). A large volume of studies that explain penal attitudes have consistently observed that across different cultures citizens want their governments to "get tough" on crime. That is, people tend to support more severe forms of punishment, death penalty being one of them. Existing compative research overlooks the role of values in shaping individual level preferences for capital punishment. Potential explanations of softer penal attitudes (for example, opposition to capital punishment) are also lacking. The current research applies multilevel multilevel modeling to the latest wave of the World Values Survey (2017-2022) to test the hypothesis about the role of materialist and post-materialist values as predictors of death penalty preferences.
