Decriminalization is basically the act of modifying social as well as moral values. Usually, societies do suggest that an act is not considered to be harmful and therefore should not be criminalized or it might not be a matter to have been addressed by the criminal justice system. This always be in contradiction with the concept of legalization which significantly removes all types of legal damages caused due to any sanctioned illegal acts of the past. It has always been noted that although some acts have been decriminalized like for example, those of homosexuality and adultery while, others have increased in their criminalization such as family oriented sexual activities or incest.
