GIVING BRAINLIST AND 50 points COMPARE AND CONTRASTING. In your workbook, Study Smart, pages 117-118 or PDF 125-126, are two excerpts. The first is from the Code of Hammurabi, created sometime after 1792 B. C. The second is from the Bill of Rights to the U. S. Constitution, which was adopted in 1791–or more

Answer and Explanation:

The Hamurabi Code was a government document, which in addition to being responsible for defining citizens' rights, was also responsible for establishing an entire governmental, economic and social structure within Mesopotamia. The Bill of Rights was also a government document, but was solely responsible for the security of citizens' rights, preventing these rights from being infringed by anything or anyone.

When it comes to the treatment of criminals, the Hamurabi code was positioned under the concept of "an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth" showing that a criminal should pay for his crimes in kind. This shows a more violent civilization with extremist rules. The declaration of rights, on the other hand, establishes that criminals must be tried and convicted in order to be subsequently re-socialized and reintegrated into society. This shows a more compassionate and selfless nature.
