Abstrak | That is why this new reader in restorative justice is to be so warmly welcomed. Running to over 600 pages, it comprises a superb collection of essays, each specially commissioned by the editors from leading international authorities in the field, that cover almost all aspects of the movement in light of the latest scholarship. Without exception, the essays are well-written, carefully considered and thoroughly documented. Some essays are more demanding than others, and not all the contributors are equally enthusiastic about restorative justice. But all give an honest and reliable account of the many issues and debates that surround the definition and practice of restorative justice, and all are worth listening to carefully. The 29 chapters are grouped somewhat loosely into seven sections, each of which opens with a helpful summary by the editors of the main ideas that emerge in the discussion that follows. Essays in Part 1 deal with the increasingly contested definition of restorative justice and the meaning of its key ideas and principles (including what I think is an outstanding essay on restorative justice values). In Part 2, the contributors examine the alleged roots of restorative justice in indigenous and biblical traditions, as well as in more recent social movements such as feminism, civil rights and the victims movement. In Part 3, the essays focus more on restorative processes and practices, while those in the following section discuss the application of restorative approaches in different social contexts, such as policing, prisons, schools, truth commissions and terrorism. The two detailed essays in Part 5 give an up-to-date account of what empirical evaluations of restorative justice schemes have discovered. These are followed by several contributions in Part 6 that trace the international spread and diversification of restorative justice. Finally, in Part 7, the future of restorative justice is discussed, both its future in the criminal justice system and its intellectual future, specifically the extent to which it can, or should, attempt to formulate a universalizable theory of justice. Bringing together such a wide range of high quality offerings on restorative justice has been no small undertaking for the editors, and they are to be warmly thanked for doing so. They have created an outstanding resource book that will serve for many years to come as the premiere teaching aid and reference work in the field. I highly commend it to all restorative justice practitioners, policy makers, criminal justice professionals and academic commentators. |
