Widening the Restorative Lens: Expanding Interdisciplinary, Historical, and Philosophical Perspectives in Restorative Justice

Widening the Restorative Lens broadens our pespectives by revisiting and enriching the theoretical "core" of restorative justice. This emerges as a significant endeavor, particularly at a time when the restorative paradigm is challenged to fulfill its promise of "changing the lens" of criminal justice.

The book works on restorative justice's theory by integrating ideas, interpretive schemes and conceptual proposals from philosophy, history, theology, and social sciences.

Contributors from diverse disciplines and cultures delve into topics like responsibility, reconciliation, and justice's ethical foundations, enriching not only restorative theory but also inspiring practitioners and scholars to reimagine the boundaries of justice itself.
