- W178826351 abstract "This essay reviews Professor Welsh White's book, The Death Penalty in the Nineties (1991). After discussing some of the analytical and methodological shortcomings of The Nineties, this review focuses on the book’s most frustrating missed opportunity: its failure to develop the far-reaching implications of the principle that is from all other punishments. The death is different principle has provided the foundation for the Court's creation of two requirements to monitor the constitutionally valid application of the penalty. The first requirement, presented in Furman v. Georgia, stated that a capital sentence must not result from unguided discretion; the second requirement, presented after Furman, mandated a consideration of all relevant mitigating evidence, such as the defendant's character, record or other circumstances of the offense, to enable individualized sentencing. Together, these two requirements established as a punishment necessitating additional safeguards to prevent the cruel or unusual application of the penalty. More recently, however, the Court has twisted the purpose of death is different to such an extent that the doctrine now represents the ultimate irony: Death as a unique form of punishment often triggers fewer safeguards in certain circumstances relative to lesser forms of punishment. White recognizes this distortion in The Nineties, but does so haltingly, without acknowledging its broad significance. This review intends to explore the profound consequences of the twisted death is different doctrine more completely than White did discussing the judicial evolution of the doctrine, its applicability throughout the capital litigation process, and then proportionality review and the Supreme Court's limitation of penalty appeals since the publication of The Nineties." @default.
