Institutionalizing Restorative Justice

TRAMA

This new book aims to explore the key isues and debates surrounding the question of the incorporation and institutionalization of restorative justice within existing penal and criminal justice systems, an increasingly pressing issue given the rapid spread of restorative justice worldwide at both national and international levels. In doing so it aims to build bridges between those concerned with the practical institutionalization of restorative justice on the one hand, and those engaged in more theoretical aspects of penal development and analysis on theother. It offers conceptual tools and a theoretical framework to help make sense of these developments, reflecting expertise drawn from analysis of developments in Europe, North America, and Australasia.
