La pena de muerte: situación actual desde una perspectiva internacional
description
The present investigation focuses on the current situation of death penalty, at global level. For this, the different treatments that are given by the States to this sanction are studied, as well as the States that practice each of them. First, an approximation is made to the current use of death penalty in the world, in order to know in which countries it is used and is in force, and in which countries it is not. Second, it is studied the international legal framework that determines the application of this penalty, which has been elaborated fundamentally within international organizations, such as the United Nations Organization. From a methodological point of view, rigorously updated and specialized sources in the field have been used. After conducting this investigation, there have been found a great diversity of situations, in which it is found the application of this sanction, as well as the different legal instruments, fundamentally of international character, used to regulate it. Hence, it can be concluded: on the one hand, the current trend in the world to abolish death penalty; and on the other hand, the position of some retention states in maintaining this sanction as a valid penalty, which in its application is effective and apparently is far from being abolished.

Para ello, se estudian los diferentes tratamientos que se dan por parte de los Estados a esta sanción, así como los Estados que practican cada uno de ellos. En primer lugar, se realiza una aproximación al uso actual de la pena de muerte en el mundo para conocer en qué países se utiliza y está vigente, y en cuáles no; y en segundo lugar, se estudia el marco jurídico internacional que determina la aplicación de esta pena, el cual ha sido elaborado fundamentalmente en el seno de organismos internacionales como la Organización de las Naciones Unidas. Desde el punto de vista metodológico, se han utilizado fuentes rigurosamente actualizadas y especializadas en la materia. Tras la realización de esta investigación se ha hallado una gran diversidad de situaciones en las que se encuentra la aplicación de esta sanción, así como los distintos instrumentos jurídicos, de carácter fundamentalmente internacional, utilizados para regularla, de allí que se pueda concluir: por una parte, la tendencia imperante actualmente en el mundo de abolir de la pena de muerte; y por otra, la posición de algunos Estados retencionistas en mantener esta sanción como una pena vigente, la cual en su aplicación es efectiva y al parecer está lejos de lograr su abolición.  2019text (article)application/pdfhttps://dialnet.unirioja.es/servlet/oaiart?codigo=7045459(Revista) ISSN 2346-0792(Revista) ISSN 1794-1598Inciso, ISSN 1794-1598, Vol. 21, Nº. 1, 2019, pags. 84-102spaLICENCIA DE USO: Los documentos a texto completo incluidos en Dialnet son de acceso libre y propiedad de sus autores y/o editores.
