Restorative Justice: Principles and Methods

Credit: 3 hours.

Pulling from a variety of applied disciplines and areas of scholarship, this course provides an overview of the contemporary restorative justice movement and critically examines restorative justice principles and methods. Starting with the problems and limitations associated with mainstream (punitive) responses to crime and rule violations, we examine how restorative justice presents an alternative set of philosophical principles of justice and seek to understand the costs and benefits associated with the different methods developed to apply that philosophy.

**Elective course for Clinical/Community or Intradisciplinary Psychology Concentration** Restorative Justice: Principles and Methods Starting with the problems and limitations associated with mainstream (punitive) responses to acts of harm and violations of norms, we will examine how restorative justice presents an alternative set of philosophical principles of justice and seek to understand the costs and benefits associated with participation in a process guided by those principles for those who have been harmed, for those who did the harm, and for others in the community who feel impacted by what occurred. To the extent possible within the structure of the university system, the course itself will be guided by restorative principles, including power-sharing.
