The meaning of 'forgiveness' and its role within restorative
justice are highly contested. This book offers analysis from
practical and academic perspectives within Christian theology,
against a rich canvas of related concepts, including victimhood,
sin, love, and vulnerability. Critical friends of restorative
justice, the authors argue that forgiveness - whether as journey or
act, unilateral or mutual, conditional or unconditional - is
necessary to achieving a fully restorative resolution to acts of
harm. They also suggest that Christianity, with its meaning-giving
metanarrative of restoration, and preference for communitarian
approaches to justice, may have epistemic value for evaluating and
even deepening the theory and practice of restorative justice.
