Spanish term

itinerarios históricos de defensa de la vida

Spanish to English Art/Literary Poetry & Literature Death Penalty
En el Congreso mundial de Ginebra se puso de manifiesto que autorizados teólogos y representantes religiosos están elaborando motivos que replantean la conexión entre textos sagrados y pena capital según una lectura contemporánea, capaz de amplificar el profundo llamamiento a respetar la vida que contiene toda tradición religiosa y los itinerarios históricos de defensa de la vida, entre los que la pena capital es percibida como un fruto cultural de culturas tradicionales y no como pilar religioso.

traditional views on the sanctity of life

A suggestion.
Peer comment(s):

agree Carol Gullidge : I like "sanctity of life". You may have to forego "traditional" as "tradición religiosa " appears immediately before it

Yes, indeed. Or replace "tradición religiosa" with "all religions".

how life has been defended in history

the point the author is making is that the death penalty is a product of traditional (pagan) cultures and not of religion, so I think you need to translate this so as not to refer to sanctity or religion
