O knihe

"Restorative justice introduces philosophy and practice rooted in ancient cultures around the world with an essential relevance to many challenges faced today. It fosters personal responsibility, courage and conviction, and potential for transformation through respectful human to human encounters and is desperately needed."
-Nancy Erbe, Professor, Negotiation, Conflict Resolution & Peacebuilding, California State University, USA

This edited volume offers a comprehensive overview of the dual concepts of Restorative Justice as a legal remedy and Restorative Practice as a philosophy to reduce harm and build resilient and just communities within social, cultural, and educational institutions. With contributions from leading practitioners and scholars, the book serves as a valuable resource for institutions seeking to center equity and reduce harm in multicultural learning spaces. Chapters combine insights into the origins and intent of Restorative Justice and Practice, showcase some of their early applications in higher education settings and beyond, and highlight their potential for promoting peace and building community on campuses across the country.
