Summary
A doctoral thesis on the paradoxical role of restorative justice in New Zealand's criminal justice system. It shows that over thirty years restorative justice has gained judicial recognition and legislative support, but that many of the same laws that enabled it also hardened the punitive system, producing one of the highest prison populations in the OECD and a greater impact on Māori. It analyzes the tensions between restorative justice and the adversarial process in the context of the reform begun in 2018 and discusses how to overcome them. Useful for those studying the institutionalization of restorative programs.
