Description

Subject Area: Criminology

Explores the theory and practice of restorative justice; that is, conflict resolution that involve victims, offenders and communities in a joint decision-making process rather than traditional legal and court-based responses. Assesses the strengths and limitations of restorative justice, and examines its application in a variety of settings from youth justice conferencing to in-prison restorative programs, to indigenous circle sentencing, to school and workplace bullying and to the global arena.
