About this title

Synopsis

This book brings together a selection of extracts from the most important and influential contributions to the restorative justice literature and its emergent philosophy, accompanying these with an informative commentary providing context and explanation where necessary.

The book includes work by both well known proponents of restorative justice, work by some of the key critics of the restorative justice movement, along with work from a number of writers not directly involved in either advocacy or critique of restorative justice, but whose work is crucial to an understanding of it. The book is organised into five main sections:

• the concept of restorative justice
• historical, anthropological and theological roots of restorative justice
• the goals - restoring victims and offenders and preventing crime
• the restorative process
• critical perspectives.
