Abstract

"All over the world the practice of peacebuilding is beset with common dilemmas: peace versus justice, religious versus secular approaches, individual versus structural justice, reconciliation versus retribution, and the harmonization of the sheer multiplicity of practices involved in repairing past harms. Progress towards the resolution of these dilemmas requires far more than reforming institutions and practices but rather clear thinking about the more basic questions: What is justice? And how is it related to the building of peace? The twin concepts of reconciliation and restorative justice, both involving the holistic restoration of right relationship, contain not only a compelling logic of justice but also great promise for resolving peacebuilding's tensions and for constructing and assessing its institutions and practices. This volume furthers this potential by developing not only the core content of these concepts but also their implications for accountability, forgiveness, reparations, traditional practices, human rights, and international law. While the volume's central orientation is theory, it contains much of interest to a wide range of scholars as well as practitioners. It is both interdisciplinary and accessibly written. It situates its analysis in countries as diverse as South Africa, El Salvador, Canada, and East Timor and in the work of institutions and communities such as the United Nations, the Catholic Church, various indigenous communities, and the international law community. It contains essays by leading scholars of restorative justice, international law, transitional justice, political philosophy and theology"--

Abstract

This monograph presents new findings from an innovative empirical study into the use of restorative justice for hate crime. The book provides original data on the contextual variables that are frequently intrinsic to both the causes and consequences of hate-motivated offences. Complex socio-cultural and socio-economic factors are revealed as being fundamental both to our understanding of hate crime and, in turn, how such incidents are best resolved. At the same time the book provides new information on how restorative processes can be used in order to repair the harms of hate while simultaneously challenging the prejudices that give rise to inter-personal conflicts. Differences between participants’ cultural and ethnic identities are explored in order to assess whether dialogical barriers to reconciliation limit the success of restorative processes. In particular, the notion of ‘community’, a fundamental concept of restorative justice theory and practice, is reconceptualized by exploring both its healing and harming features. The book asserts that the risks of community posed by pervasive cultures of prejudice can be countered by inclusive processes focusing on dialogue that explores both identity ‘difference’ and experiences of harm. It is by drawing together theoretical assumptions about restorative philosophy with empirical evidence of its use for hate crime that the book is able to offer a more holistic understanding of how restorative justice can be utilized to help repair the harms caused by the processes of hate that continue to pervade our multicultural communities.

Abstract

This book argues for restoration as one of the main objectives of the criminal justice process and offers an approach aimed at restricting the current limitations of criminal justice process and addressing the current deficiencies. Drawing on comparative and empirical analysis of existing models of global practice from the three primary jurisdictions of Australia, New Zealand and Canada, the book provides the leading examples of restorative justice practices incorporated in mainstream criminal justice responses from around the world.
