AI overview
An executioner is a person officially appointed to carry out capital punishment by executing condemned criminals, historically as a public spectacle. The role mattered as an instrument of state justice and social order, though it has largely disappeared in modern times as capital punishment has become less common or been abolished in many countries.

刽子手、處刑人或行刑者是古代对于从事直接处决犯人为职业的人的一种称呼。現在世界各國大多以法警、警員或是憲兵作為处决犯人者。 漢語中的「劊子手」一詞，也可以用來罵人，當作「殘忍」、「作惡多端」、「殺人如麻」的意思。（參見殺手）
