摘　　要：在其他西方国家已经废除死刑之际,美国仍然保留着死刑。传统的思考方式倾向于在美国的“保留”和其他西方国家的“废除”之间提出一个简化的、二元论的问题,但这种方式往往会忽略诸多影响因素,从而产生一个极具误导性的答案。美国的死刑以及刑事政策与其他西方国家相比既有自己的独特之处,但也存在着共性。不能单纯地将两者之间的差异诉诸美国例外主义,要想更好地解释两者之间的差异,需要关注美国目前实施死刑的独特制度与文化形式。本文通过揭示美国死刑的特殊形式,并通过对私刑与当代死刑关系的探讨,解释了当代美国保留死刑的原因。While other western countries have abolished the death penalty,the United States still retains it.The traditional way of thinking tends to put forward a simplified and dualistic question between the"reservation"of the United States and the"abolition"of other western countries,but this way often ignores many influencing factors,thus producing a very misleading answer.Compared with other western countries,the death penalty and criminal policy in the United States have their own uniqueness,and there are also commonalities between them.We can't simply resort to American exceptionalism.To better explain the differences between them,we need to pay attention to the unique system and cultural form of the death penalty in the United States.Through revealing the special form of the death penalty in the United States,and through the discussion of the relationship between lynching and contemporary death penalty,this article explains the reasons why the death penalty is retained in contemporary America.
