Document Summary
In order to say any program is restorative or not, some or all of these 4 things need to be addressed: pre-charge diversion. Doing rj means no charges at all: post-charge diversion. Charges are laid and the court says if they finish rj, the charges won"t be pursued: criticisms of rj in the cjs, net widening: stanley cohen. A net of social control of justice that goes out into society and catches offenders. Rj should allow the net to get smaller: professionalization of rj. When setting up rj, the programs and agencies tend to be non-profit community programs. An immense amount of degrees, diplomas, and training to get for conflict, studies, peacemaking in both undergraduate and graduate. Creating a new class of conflict views: rj forced to meet system goals. Keeps rj tied to criminal justice definitions: offenders" rights. Rj can muddle some rights if a case is brought back and used against someone.
