Features: "Justice Experiment," an academic on prison studies. Justice is the primary value in building a harmonious socialist society and holds a foundational position. In traditional prison philosophy, punishment of crime reflects justice; however, in modern thought, reforming offenders is also a requirement of justice, and ensuring the human rights of offenders is equally a part of justice. Currently, the conclusion that "crime is inevitable" tells us that the causes of crime are multifaceted. Based on this, punishment has evolved from retributionism to utilitarianism and rationalism, inevitably leading to the development of justiceism. Moving from free punishment to just punishment is an inevitable trend in the execution system of modern society. Prisons are the experimental grounds for justice.
