What is the connection between punishment and immorality? Deterrence theorists maintain that punishment scares people away from immorality. Retributive theorists claim that punishment makes sure that wrongdoers suffer in proportion to their moral iniquity and thereby give up any unfair advantage over others their wrongdoing may have won them.1 Moral education theorists—who seem to be dominating philosophical discussion these days—maintain that punishment functions to teach people what is wrong by, in Robert Nozick’s phrase, “connecting them with correct values.“2
