Environmental Crime and Restorative Justice

More about the book

Restorative justice approaches are examined in the context of environmental crimes, highlighting their potential advantages over traditional criminal justice methods. The book critiques the existing court processes in Australia and New Zealand, which often lack meaningful engagement from both offenders and victims, thereby diminishing their roles in the justice system. It advocates for restorative justice conferencing as a viable alternative, aiming to enhance visibility and interaction among all parties involved in environmental offenses.
