Summary
It discusses whether Spanish law should maintain the ban on mediation in gender-based violence offences. It recalls that restorative criminal procedures are still not regulated in Spain, that the legislator nevertheless excluded these cases, and that scholarly criticism grew stronger when European legislation required the creation of restorative criminal justice mechanisms. Starting from the stereotype of the victim underlying current law, it argues that the prohibition should be repealed and that victims who wish to do so and meet certain conditions should be able to access a mediation procedure. It is useful for those debating that reform.
