Description
Debating Restorative Justice explores the potential for restorative justice to transform the way we respond to harm caused by crime and antisocial behaviour. Carolyn Hoyle argues that communities and the state should adopt more restorative approaches, while Chris Cunneen challenges this idea, suggesting that restorative justice's theoretical foundations are limited by its lack of analysis on social and political power.
This thought-provoking debate raises important questions about the role of restorative justice in the criminal justice system. With a wealth of experience in the field, Hoyle and Cunneen offer valuable insights into the potential benefits and limitations of this approach.
