UNDERSTANDING THE RESTORATIVE JUSTICE

Abstract

There have been offences and sentences from the beginning of human civilization. It should certainly be argued that the principles and procedures embraced by the modern Criminal Justice System have done justice to some degree or another, from the punitive philosophy to the reformatory theory of punishment. One question is likely to increase in contemporary times, i.e. whether the existing Criminal Justice System is adequate to deliver full justice? Three parties are interested in a criminal case: the perpetrator, the witness, and the society at large. Throughout the world, not only are victims of crime covered, but also restored, supported and paid with the help of Apt. Legislation.
