Until now there has been no critical analysis of governmental rationales that legitimize restorative practices over traditional approaches butGoverning Practices of Restorative Justicefills this gap and addresses the mentalities of governance most prominent in restorative justice. The author provides comprehensible commentary on the central images of this discursive arena in a style accessible to participants and observers alike of restorative justice. | Governing Paradoxes of Restorative Justice by George Pavlich, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
