This is the text of the Rede Lecture, 1990, given by Her Royal Highness The Princess Royal (Princess Anne). Her Royal Highness considers the role of punishment in the community, as a lay citizen and as a parent, but also draws on her experience of working with voluntary agencies such as the Save the Children Fund and the Victim Support Group. Her Royal Highness relates the Law to the responsibility of the individual within the community, and weighs the merits of punishment as retribution and as deterrant. The importance is asserted of offender-victim contact and of the community at large taking a clear moral position on each category of crime.
