Abstract

From the perspective of natural and legal rights, criminals sentenced to death penalty still enjoy procreative rights and rights to get married. Their loss of freedom or life in future does not necessarily mean that they will lose legitimacy to enjoy and the possibility to exercise their rights. On the contrary, the awakened consciousness of human rights, the deepened understanding of crime, the support of traditional culture, the remodeling of government responsibility and the highlighting of humanitarianism all make it possible to realize such rights. Therefore, we should recognize that criminals given death penalty can enjoy procreative rights and rights to get married, and enable them to exercise their rights within reasonable limits.
