Debating Law is a new, exciting series that gives scholarly experts
the opportunity to offer contrasting perspectives on significant
topics of contemporary, general interest. In this first volume of
the series Carolyn Hoyle argues that communities and the state
should be more restorative in responding to harms caused by crimes,
antisocial behaviour and other incivilities. She supports the
exclusive use of restorative justice for many non-serious offences,
and favours approaches that, by integrating restorative and
retributive philosophies, take restorative practices into the 'deep
end' of criminal justice. While acknowledging that restorative
justice appears to have much to offer in terms of criminal justice
reform, Chris Cunneen offers a different account, contending that
the theoretical cogency of restorative ideas is limited by their
lack of a coherent analysis of social and political power. He goes
on to argue that after several decades of experimentation,
restorative justice has not produced significant change in the
criminal justice system and that the attempt to establish it as a
feasible alternative to dominant practices of criminal justice has
failed. This lively and valuable debate will be of great interest
to everyone interested in the criminal justice system.
