Abstract

This critical review, which was done on thematic basis, covers literature mainly from the period of 2015-2022 on corporal punishment obtained from some major databases and textbooks. The review, which took a funnel approach, covers literature from global, African and Ghanaian perspectives on corporal punishment. The review which covers literature on what is corporal punishment, forms of corporal punishment, prevalence of corporal punishment and reasons for the use of corporal punishment among others, is intended to give understanding on the use of corporal punishment in society. It also aims to guide future studies on the use of corporal punishment and the call for the use of other alternatives to corporal punishment.
