Sumario: | "Restorative approaches to crime and punishment are not new. The Restorative Movement is increasingly global and geared to removing conflict from communities including as between victims and offenders. But despite countless books and resources RJ is still confined to the margins of criminal justice and frequently by way of an apology." "This book sets out to translate theory and fine words into mainstream practice. It will be of interest to a wide range of prison and RJ practitioners as well as other people such as judges, magistrates, police officers and probation officers who deal with crime prevention, reparation, rehabilitation and reintegration. It looks at the huge, untapped potential for implementing restorative approaches in prison and provides a model for organizational and cultural change - 'building a restorative community within prison walls' - and makes suggestions about everyday functions such as sentence planning, discipline, violence reduction and complaints."--Jacket |
