In the UK and elsewhere, restorative justice and policing are core
components of a range of university programmes; however, currently
no such text exists on the intersection of these two areas of
study. This book draws together these diverse theoretical
perspectives to provide an innovative, knowledge-rich text that is
essential reading for all those engaged with the evolution and
practice of restorative policing. Restorative Policing surveys the
twenty-five year history of restorative policing practice, during
which its use and influence over criminal justice has slowly grown.
It then situates this experience within a criminological discussion
about neo-liberal responses to crime control. There has been
insufficient debate about how the concepts of 'restorative justice'
and 'policing' sit alongside each other and how they may be
connected or disconnected in theoretical and conceptual terms. The
book seeks to fill this gap through an exploration of concepts,
theory, policy and practice. In doing so, the authors make a case
for a more transformative vision of restorative policing that can
impact positively upon the shape and practice of policing and
outline a framework for the implementation of such a strategy. This
pathbreaking book will be of interest to undergraduate and
postgraduate students taking courses on restorative justice,
policing and crime control, as well as professionals interested in
the implementation of restorative practices in the police force.
