Summary: | Presents a radical critique of the existing justice system and outline a needs-based restorative justice alternative. Sullivan and Tifft propose that restorative justice principles be extended far beyond the legal system, to families, schools, workplaces, neighborhoods and other societal institutions. They present a variety of examples of the needs-based approach, including juvenile justice conferencing, victim-offender mediation, and truth commissions in two dozen nations. |
