I will examine whether we should prefer non-consequentialist theories of punishment over consequentialist ones on the grounds of punishment proportionality. Non-consequentialists often reject consequentialist theories by claiming that they allow disproportionate penalties. For this objection to be good, non-consequentialists have to provide a clear criteria to determine proportionality. My hypothesis is that all consequentialists share a common set of concerns about why punishment needs to be proportionate, despite their differences on the contents of proportionality, that would make them preferable for whoever shares those same concerns.

我将考察我们是否应该在惩罚相称性的基础上，更倾向于非后果主义的惩罚理论。非结果主义者经常拒绝结果主义理论，声称他们允许不成比例的处罚。为了使这种反对是好的，非后果主义者必须提供一个明确的标准来确定相称性。我的假设是，所有后果主义者都有一套共同的担忧，即为什么惩罚需要相称，尽管他们在相称性的内容上存在差异，这将使他们更适合那些有同样担忧的人。
