This book documents the state of the art on Victim-Offender
Mediation with youth offenders in 15 European nations (Austria,
Belgium, England and Wales, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary,
Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, The Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Spain,
Sweden). It provides an up-do date review of current theory and
practice and presents a critical discussion of problems and
benefits which may help guide future policy decisions and
applications. The book informs both those who are interested in
evaluating the current state of affairs of Victim-Offender
Mediation with youth offenders in Europe, and those who would like
to promote Victim-Offender Mediation in their own countries.
The common format used in each chapter facilitates comparison
across countries. Per country, five areas of investigation are
explored and discussed: norms and legislation allowing for the
implementation of victim-offender mediation programmes; values and
theoretical frameworks of victim-offender mediation; organizational
structure of victim-offender mediation services; professional
characteristics of mediators; benefits, potential problems, and
criticisms of current practice.
