Informal Reckonings: Conflict Resolution in Mediation, Restorative Justice, and Reparations
Autor Andrew Woolford, R.S. Ratneren Limba Engleză Hardback – 20 dec 2007
This book contributes to the discussion of the confluence of informal and formal justice by providing a clearer picture of the justice 'field' through the notion of the 'informal/formal justice complex.' This term, adapted from Garland and Sparks (2000), describes a cultural formation in which adversarial/punitive and conciliatory/restorative justice forms coexist in relative harmony despite their apparent contradictions. Situating this complex within the context of neoliberalism, this book identifies the points of rupture in the informal/formal justice complex to pinpoint how and where a truly alternative and 'transformative' justice (i.e. a justice that challenges and counters the hegemony of formal legal practices, opening the field of law to a broader array of actors and ideas) might be established through the tools of mediation, restorative justice and reparations.

Recenzii
"This perceptive, well-argued, but condensed volume written clearly and elegantly provides good summaries of the advantages and perils of informal reckoning in different settings, and convincingly argues that, as arenas of expression and mobilization of social and legal criticism, these informal 'counterpublics' can lead toward transformative justice." -- CHOICE September 2008, Vol. 46 (L. Stan, St. Francis Xavier University)
Descriere
