Shaming penalties privatize both the determination of the severity of the sanction and the infliction of the sanction. These negative reactions may in turn lead to the infliction of (justified or unjustified) privately inflicted sanctions such as social stigmatization and isolation. Yet, in contrast to the instrumental justification, there are normative constraints that preclude the infliction of sanctions by agents other than the state. The infliction of state-initiated privately inflicted sanctions is impermissible. An example would be the infliction of harm in just punishment. The successful infliction of punishments (or at least some types of punishments) hinges upon the identity of the agent who performs it. Second, there is development from infliction of harm on relatives and peers to infliction of harm on strangers. There is the punishment of loss and an infliction of experiential suffering that accompanies the judgement. I think that the intuition that nothing could justify the infliction of a horrendous evil is correct, with one possible amendment. This link, it will be argued, is indispensable to the legitimacy of the infliction of criminal sanctions triggered by violating state-issued prohibitions. It is impermissible on the part of the state to authorize, encourage, or initiate the infliction of sanctions in the absence of such a link. The act of paying is perhaps the most unfortunate infliction that the two orchard thieves entailed upon us. Yet we are much more likely to consider gratuitous inflictions of negative emotional states as involving conflicts with, or the suppression of, our natures. Two recent initiatives to privatize the infliction of sanctions, namely, shaming penalties and private prisons, illustrate the relevance of this conclusion to contemporary controversies. The couple sued for conversion and for intentional infliction of emotional distress. He or she has to justify actions that involve the deliberate infliction of pain. If such trust could be justified, the citizen would be exempt from responsibility for the infliction of an inappropriate sanction. Yet it is wrong on the part of the state to approve of the infliction of the sanction under these circumstances. They cannot abdicate their responsibility for the infliction of suffering. The infliction of sanctions by the state is justified only when victims consent to transfer their power to inflict sanctions to the state. The infliction of visible signs of dishonour was feared and resented. I argue that there is a link between the state's judgments concerning the wrongfulness of the act and the infliction of sanctions. As we have seen, there has to be quite a lot on the other side to justify the infliction of even a comparatively small harm. It is analytically\\logically necessary that severe pain is bad for people and thus that the infliction of it is something which one has prima facie moral reason to avoid.
