Abstract

The punitive trend adopted by criminal policy in recent decades has reached its peak with the entry into force of the reviewable permanent prison. The Constitutional Court, through its STC 169/2021, has recognized the constitutional nature of the sentence, despite having two dissenting votes, it has had a great social impact. In the process of recognizing the admissibility of the penalty, the next point to focus on, is the European Court of Human Rights, to see whether the European Convention of Human Rights acknowledges it or not. All of the mentioned, is just a sample of the strength that punitivism has acquired in recent decades.
