¿El fin justifica los miedos? Perspectiva genealógica de los debates sobre la pena de muerte en Colombia

A lo largo de la historia republicana de Colombia el debate sobre la pena de muerte siempre ha estado presente, directa o indirectamente. A pesar de que se abolió oficialmente en 1910, ha sido frecuente escuchar voces que se muestran favorables a una reaplicación de la pena de muerte. Uno de los momentos más significativos, quizá el más importante hasta la fecha, ocurrió en 1925. El objetivo de este artículo es reflexionar sobre el proceso histórico del cadalso en Colombia, buscando examinar las posiciones presentadas por abolicionistas y defensores de la pena de muerte en los primeros años del siglo XX. El artículo se divide en dos partes. La primera aborda reflexiones filosóficas sobre la pena de muerte, alrededor de Hobbes y Spinoza, incluyendo algunas referencias sociológicas de Durkheim. La segunda se concentra en estudiar algunas polémicas a favor y en contra del restablecimiento de la pena de muerte en Colombia.-----Throughout Colombia’s republican history the debate on the death penalty has always been present, either directly or indirectly. Despite it being officially abolished in 1910, many have frequently been heard favoring a reestablishment of the death penalty. One of the most significant events, and perhaps the most important to date, took place in 1925. The purpose of this article is to reflect on the historic process of scaffolding in Colombia, seeking to examine the opinions presented by abolitionists and defenders of the death penalty during the early years of the 20th century. It is divided into two parts. The first addresses the philosophical questions regarding the death penalty, from Hobbes and Spinoza, and including some sociological references to Durkheim. The second concentrates on studying some of the polemics in favor and against the reestablishment of the death penalty in Colombia.
