This is a study of Montesquieu's and Beccaria's views on the right to apply death punishment as stated in the great Encyclopedia and in the Supplements. Without providing any unique answer to the question whether society may claim the right of life and death, the encyclopaedists reconsidered and diffused the reformism of the major authors of the eighteenth-century legal culture, thus promoting a societal justice before the Revolution.
