The Lash Punishment Debate in Nonconformist Letter
A letter argues against flogging as a deterrent for crime and wife beating. It cites Bentham on publicity, warns flogging brutalises society, and critiques arguments for using the lash on abusive husbands. Proposes replacing punishment with enforced remunerative prison labor benefiting victims and severing marriage ties when justified.
