Difference Between Legalization And Decriminalization
Legalization vs. Decriminalization
The differences between legalization and decriminalization are something that often confuses students. After all, the prefix “de” makes it seem as though an act is no longer illegal, which could be misconstrued for being “legal.” However, in law terminologies, “illegal” is actually different from “criminal” and, therefore, would put a different take on the legalization versus decriminalization issue.

To put it simply, “legalization” is the process of making a particular action legal. For example, legalization of prostitution means that patrons no longer have to hide whenever they seek the services of a prostitute; the act becomes completely legal and is just as acceptable as the purchase of gum or candy in a retail store. All the punishment and consequences previously attributed to the act are no longer in effect.
On the other hand, “decriminalization” means that the criminal penalties attributed to an act are no longer in effect. Going back to the original example, decriminalization of prostitution means that individuals found committing the act would be exposed to lesser penalties, such as a fine or a special permit instead of jail time. In this case, if prostitution were decriminalized, individuals engaged in the business would need to have the government’s official approval in order to operate; otherwise, they would get fined if caught doing it. Some individuals are of the opinion that the decriminalization of an act reflects the changing social values of a society. For example, should prostitution be decriminalized, it will mean that more and more people are learning to accept the presence of the industry. A decriminalized act has the possibility of being legalized after some years.

In essence, you would still need to hide when committing a decriminalized act – unless, of course, a special permit was allowed and you had one. Basically, if prostitution was to be decriminalized and you got caught in the act of soliciting a prostitute, then the penalties afforded would be no more severe than a speeding ticket.

It usually takes careful consideration on the part of the lawmakers when deciding on whether an act should be legalized or decriminalized. These concerned individuals would look into the future impact of an action and determine whether or not legalization would provide sufficient advantages. As mentioned, decriminalization reflects the changing views of society about various issues. Usually, society finds that an act does not have any negative side effects (or is so insignificant that the justice system shouldn’t bother with it) and should not, therefore, continue to be considered criminal.

Some of the acts that are still being considered today with regards to their criminality include abortion, homosexuality, euthanasia, polygamy, prostitution, use of steroids in sports, and even breastfeeding in public. The view on these subjects actually varies from state to state and from country to country. In fact, some governments have legalized prostitution (Germany and the Netherlands), while others clearly define it as illegal (Philippines and most Muslim countries). However, some countries have separated the two acts in prostitution (selling and buying), wherein the person who solicits sexual services is committing a criminal act, while the prostitute is not.
