Abstract
The authors provide a state-of-the-art commentary on ‘restorative justice’.A form of criminal justice that emphasizes reparation to the victim or the affected members of the community by the offender, RJ is therefore remarked by the authors on account of the inherent communication processes affecting the various members of the community, which take place in sessions conducted by facilitators/mediators. These processes that rely on shared value-systems and on the facilitators’ communicative/ negotiatory skills are relevant for language and discourse-based analysis and interpretation.File in questo prodotto:
