abstract = {{The purpose of this article is to discuss the criminalization of conduct based on human dignity arguments. It proposes a modest version of integrating human dignity into discussions about criminalization. After a critical examination of both the notion of \textquotedbllefthuman dignity as an objective value\textquotedblright and the assumption that the meaning of human dignity can be explained by referring to Kant\textquoterights moral philosophy, human dignity violations are characterized as severe humiliations.}},
