This volume provides an essential update on current thinking,
practice and research into the use of restorative justice in the
area of family violence. It contains contemporary empirical,
theoretical and practical perspectives on the use of restorative
justice for intimate partner and family violence, including sexual
violence and elder abuse. Whilst raising issues relating to the
implications of reporting, it provides a fresh look at victims'
issues as well as providing accounts of those who have participated
in restorative justice processes and who have been victims of
abusive relationships. Contributions are included from a wide range
of perspectives to provide a balanced approach that is not simply
polemic or advocating. Rather, the book genuinely raises the issue
for debate, with the advantage of bringing into the open new
research which has not been widely published previously. Given its
unique experience in the development of restorative justice, the
book includes empirical studies relating to New Zealand,
contextualized within the global situation by the inclusion of
perspectives on practices in the UK, Australia and North America.
This book will be key reading for people who work with violent
offending of a family nature as well as for those who are
interested in the study of family violence.
