Reviews

`...undoubtedly the most scientifically balanced study to focus entirely on victim-oriented expectations and outcomes as a result of restorative justice interventions...an important addition to the empirical and theoretical literature on restorative justice.' Russ Immarigeon, Victim Offender Mediation Association (USA) `...Strang goes beyond the simple assessment of 'satisfaction' to the value of the informal proceedings as well as the outcome... this research shows that while we should not claim too much or raise expectations too far, good quality restorative justice apparently gives victims more of what they want than the conventional process.' Martin Wright, University of Sussex, British Journal of Criminology
