The favored view is that there are three: incapacitation, rehabilitation, and retribution. A jailed convict is incapacitated and will have a more difficult time hurting anyone else; the term itself and other programs may rehabilitate him so that he won't want to hurt anyone else; and politically, people need to see wrongdoers punished to feel safe.
