Graduación de la pena [...] quiere decir fijar la que debe corresponder para cada delito. El problema se plantea en cuanto al modo de hacer esa graduación y se complica tanto más cuando difiere respecto del criterio o concepto que de la pena se tenga. Si funciona como prevención, en el sentido de que por el temor que infunde resulta idónea para apartar a la gente de cometer un delito, habría que admitir que, cuanto más grave, mejor sirve; pero entonces resulta innecesaria la valoración individual del hecho y de la persona, con lo que no sería justa. 2, record 1, Spanish, - determinaci%C3%B3n%20de%20la%20pena
