Description
Through the 1970s and 1980s interest in restitution has grown, with the practice moving from a few special projects to much broader application as a part of pretrial diversion, probation, and mediation programs that operate as an alternative to criminal or juvenile justice processing of cases. But, as the papers in this volume reflect, the interest in restitution has moved considerably beyond the idea of offenders repaying victims. A theory of restorative justice is emerging.
