Yes We Can - Barack Obama in RJ mode

"A proposta de Barack Obama é, justamente, a de atenuar tais cisões e restabelecer os laços sociais, para poder efetivamente governar, sob o prisma de uma justiça restaurativa. Ele entende que não vai enfrentar com sucesso os desafios da crise econômica, da reanimação dos parceiros internacionais, do aquecimento global, sem uma sociedade menos dividida e anômica. "

Produto final - Cost Action A21

IMAGES OF RESTORATIVE JUSTICE THEORY

'Images of Restorative Justice Theory' is the product of serious work and discussions over four years in an international and multidisciplinary group funded by the COST Action A 21 ‘Restorative Justice Developments in Europe’.

It provides its readers with contributions by experienced academics and researchers that deepen the understanding of restorative justice from the broad perspective of macro-theories down to a focus on micro dynamics in restorative justice procedures.

The position of restorative justice vis-á-vis the law and the criminal justice system is systematically analyzed and discussed. Ideas and positions from the Anglophone academic world are confronted or enriched with the contrasting traditions in political and sociological theory and legal reasoning of Continental Europe.

All this makes this volume a novel contribution that will stimulate theoretical thinking and further enquiries and debates about restorative justice.'

As palavras do Senhor Ministro aqui.

Os diplomas regulamentares da Lei de Mediação Penal estão disponíveis aqui.

O GRAL disponibiliza uma Linha Azul - 808 26 2000 - para mais esclarecimentos.

Regista-se ainda a celebração do Protocolo de Cooperação entre o Gabinete para a Resolução Alternativa de Litígios do Ministério da Justiça e o Laboratório de Resolução Alternativa de Litígios da Faculdade de Direito da Universidade Nova de Lisboa e que visa 'a realização de um projecto de monitorização, investigação e avaliação do período experimental da mediação em processo penal e da sua implementação no nosso ordenamento jurídico'.

Fará sentido, ainda, o título deste blog??
