استخدام عقوبة الإعدام حسب البلد
عقوبة الإعدام استخدمت تقريبا في كل جزء من العالم ، ولكن في العقود القليلة الماضية العديد من البلدان التي قامت بإلغائها. منظمة العفو الدولية تصنف البلدان إلى أربع فئات :
- 59 دولة تبقي على عقوبة الإعدام في القانون والممارسة على حد سواء. (أيضا قوائم السلطة الفلسطينية)
- 91 قامت بإلغائها. (أيضا قوائم & جزر كوك ونيوي)
- 10 الابقاء عليه عن الجرائم التي ارتكبت في ظروف استثنائية (كما في زمن الحرب).
- 35 يسمح باستخدامه بالنسبة للجرائم العادية ، غير أنها لم تستخدم لمدة لا تقل عن 10 سنوات.
وبالإضافة إلى ذلك ، البلدان الخمسة إعدام الأحداث. [1]) وفي بعض البلدان على ممارسة الإعدام خارج نطاق القضاء بشكل متقطع أو منهجية خاصة بها رسميا خارج الأطر القانونية ويحدث. هذه القائمة تضم أقل عدد من الدول غير المعترف بها مع سيطرة فعلية على أراضيها والأقاليم التابعة لها ، التي لا تدرج في الأرقام المذكورة أعلاه ، باستثناء ما.
