This ground-breaking collection dares to take the next step in the
advancement of an autonomous, inter-disciplinary restorative
justice field of study. It brings together criminology, social
psychology, legal theory, neuroscience, affect-script psychology,
sociology, forensic mental health, political sciences, psychology
and positive psychology to articulate for the first time a
psychological concept of restorative justice. To this end, the book
studies the power structures of the restorative justice movement,
the very psychology, motivations and emotions of the practitioners
who implement it as well as the drivers of its theoreticians and
researchers. Furthermore, it examines the strengths and weakness of
our own societies and the communities that are called to
participate as parties in restorative justice. Their own biases,
hunger for power and control, fears and hopes are investigated. The
psychology and dynamics between those it aims to reach as well as
those who are funding it, including policy makers and politicians,
are looked into. All these questions lead to creating an
understanding of the psychology of restorative justice. The book is
essential reading for academics, researchers, policymakers,
practitioners and campaigners.
