This lecture discusses the 19th century philosopher, Friedrich Nietzsche, and discusses his work The Genealogy of Morals.

It focuses specifically on the theory of punishment he articulates there, distinguishing between the origins and the later purposes of punishment.

It turns out that there is no one single "meaning" of punishment, with the implication that any of the main contemporary theories that stress one primary meaning, goal, or function of punishment (retribution, incapacitation, deterrence, rehabilitation, etc.) can provide at best a partial picture of what is really going on.

Nietzsche theorizes that the origin of punishment lies in the relationship between creditor and debtor - the right exercised by the creditor to exact or impose something painful or humiliating upon the debtor, in order to gain some pleasure or some tradeoff in the process. He stresses that this is not the main meaning of punishment - the origin is not the same thing as the meaning.
