Beschreibung

Sexual violence, in all its forms, is a crime for which anecdotal accounts and scholarly reports suggest victims in their great majority do not receive adequate 'justice' or redress. The theory and practice of restorative justice is rapidly developing and offers some well-argued new avenues for dealings with crime in general. It has the potential to be extended to cases of sexual violence and a number of small scale programmes are already underway across the world.

Restorative Responses to Sexual Violence examines this innovative justice paradigm in more depth in the particular context of sexual trauma and violence in order to establish the empirical realities of restorative justice approaches in cases of sexual violence, and considers how such approaches could be developed adequately in the future. This book is divided into two parts, each representing a key area of research and practice: theoretical and conceptual frameworks, and justice and therapeutic perspectives.

This international collection brings together leading expert scholars and practitioners to offer both theoretical and practical perspectives on restorative justice and sexual violence. This book will be of interest to researchers in the field of law, criminology, psychology, social science, social work and psychotherapy, as well as practitioners in the fields of criminal justice, restorative justice and sex offender and victim trauma therapies.

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"This is a brave edited collection. The juxtaposition of restorative justice with sexual violence is an emotive topic and this collection faces the problems and the possibilities inherent in doing so with care, craft and thought. It brings together international expertise and will be of interest to an international audience. The editors are to be congratulated for putting such a valuable collection together that deserves to be read by a wide audience of practitioners, researchers and academics."

"This important book represents a major step forward in understanding the harms of sexual assault and the profound needs that survivors have in its aftermath. Presenting research from around the world, the authors examine how restorative justice may both meet and fail to meet these needs. In my view, this remarkable collection will guide work on this topic for many years to come."

James Ptacek, Professor and Chair, Department of Sociology, Suffolk University, USA
