Abstract
The question I want to ask is whether we, as Americans, pay decent respect to the opinions of humankind in our administration of the death penalty. If, as I believe, we do not, what significance should this have for the constitutionality of capital punishment under the Eighth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution?
