Cesare Beccaria significantly influenced the US Constitution through his advocacy for criminal justice reform and Enlightenment principles. His work, "On Crimes and Punishments," emphasized the importance of due process, the prevention of cruel and unusual punishment, and the idea that laws should promote the greatest good for society. These ideas directly contributed to the Eighth Amendment's prohibition of excessive bail and cruel punishments, as well as the overall framework of rights and liberties that underpin the Constitution. Beccaria's emphasis on rational legal principles also helped shape the democratic ideals embedded in the Constitution.
