Widening the restorative lens by Reggio & Pali (eds.)

• In Event: A roundtable around 2 new books in the book series 'Studies in Restorative Justice' (Brill)

Abstract

This edited collection concerns a return to the theoretical foundations of restorative justice, in a time when the restorative paradigm is faced with the challenge of living up its promise of ‘changing the lenses’ of criminal justice and sustain an overall rethinking of the reaction to crime. It aims to ‘widen’ the lens of academic and cultural references on restorative justice, by highlighting works, authors and theoretical proposals that are lesser known in the international debate on restorative justice.
