Description
In this new, significantly revised edition of an acclaimed text, the authors reconsider restorative justice and its politics both globally and locally.
The authors clarify key theoretical issues while offering fresh perspectives and provocative questions. Observing that "transformative justice is an always unfinished project," they ask how the approach might be more effective; and they explore in depth how intersecting sociopolitical contexts-gendered, racialized, and colonial, among others-contour the practice and potential of restorative justice.
