Description

This compilation of essays delves into the multifaceted applications of restorative justice within the legal domain and beyond. The essays highlight the dynamic nature of restorative justice, demonstrating how its interpretation can vary based on the needs of the individuals and the community involved.

Consequently, the essays cover a wide array of topics including housing discrimination, family conflicts, the war on drugs, the death penalty, juvenile courts, law school education, torture, immigration, clergy sexual abuse, international conflicts, yoga, and self-healing.
