Contemporary Issues in Restorative Practice explores the processes and techniques used to resolve and/or prevent crime and conflict using restorative principles. Each book in the series addresses a theme within a specific setting and contains a range of pedagogical features on ‘how to’ achieve effective practice. Whilst incorporating a wide range of real-life examples, authors will also ground practice within the established conceptual and theoretical literature and, where appropriate, develop this further. In this way, the series will support both academic and professional development through a synthesis of experiential and evidential knowledge. The series will appeal to practitioners, researchers, scholars, and organisations with an interest in restorative justice and restorative practices.
