Book Description
¿Es posible que las personas enfrentadas por conductas delictivas puedan encontrarse y dialogar?, ¿con qué finalidad?, ¿quedan en entredicho las funciones preventivas del sistema penal?, ¿con qué herramientas trabaja la persona mediadora? Estas son las cuestiones, entre otras muchas, que aborda este libro. Algunas víctimas se acercan a los procesos restaurativos en la búsqueda de datos que completen la verdad del delito sufrido, también en la búsqueda de un reconocimiento. Quedan preguntas sin contestar a cuestiones humanamente esenciales, porque los hechos probados de la sentencia no los aporta, al no ser significativos para la aplicación de la ley. Sin verdad, no hay paz; sin conocimiento de las consecuencias del daño causado, sin reconocimiento de la humanidad dañada, sin palabra honesta y auténtica, sin escucha compasiva, no hay ni reparación, ni responsabilidad, ni crecimiento humano. Se construye paz cuando hubo violencia si se respeta el valor de cada persona, sus cualidades únicas, su humanidad imperfecta, pero digna; cuando se siente el dolor causado al otro. Con el reconocimiento personal, el más íntimo, el que no se puede suplir por ningún otro, las víctimas tienen todos los elementos y datos para iniciar o continuar sus procesos de desidentificación, cerrar sanamente sus duelos, conectar con sus necesidades vitales para continuar la vida sin un muro hasta entonces infranqueable. A profundizar en la teoría, filosofía, ética y metodología práctica de este sistema de justicia restaurativa, está destinada esta obra.

Book Description
Results of the 2007 Nuremberg Conference on Peace and Justice: Tensions between peace and justice have long been debated by scholars, practitioners and agencies including the United Nations, and both theory and policy must be refined for very practical application in situations emerging from violent conflict or political repression. Specific contexts demand concrete decisions and approaches aimed at redress of grievance and creation of conditions of social justice for a non-violent future. There has been definitive progress in a world in which blanket amnesties were granted at times with little hesitation. There is a growing understanding that accountability has pragmatic as well as principled arguments in its favour. Practical arguments as much as shifts in the norms have created a situation in which the choice is increasingly seen as "which forms of accountability" rather than a stark choice between peace and justice. It is socio-political transformation, not just an end to violence, that is needed to build sustainable peace. This book addresses these dilemmas through a thorough overview of the current state of legal obligations; discussion of the need for a holistic approach including development; analysis of the implications of the coming into force of the ICC; and a series of "hard" case studies on internationalized and local approaches devised to navigate the tensions between peace and justice.

Book Description
This book is an unprecedented attempt to analyze the role of the law in the global movement for social justice. Case studies in the book are written by leading scholars from both the global South and the global North, and combine empirical research on the ground with innovative sociolegal theory to shed new light on a wide array of topics. Among the issues examined are the role of law and politics in the World Social Forum; the struggle of the anti-sweatshop movement for the protection of international labour rights; and the challenge to neoliberal globalization and liberal human rights raised by grassroots movements in India and indigenous peoples around the world. These and other cases, the editors argue, signal the emergence of a subaltern cosmopolitan law and politics that calls for new social and legal theories capable of capturing the potential and tensions of counter-hegemonic globalization.

Book Description
An analysis of transitional justice - retribution and reparation after a change of political regime - from Athens in the fifth century BC to the present. Part I, 'The Universe of Transitional Justice', describes more than thirty transitions, some of them in considerable detail, others more succinctly. Part II, 'The Analytics of Transitional Justice', proposes a framework for explaining the variations among the cases - why after some transitions wrongdoers from the previous regime are punished severely and in other cases mildly or not at all, and victims sometimes compensated generously and sometimes poorly or not at all. After surveying a broad range of justifications and excuses for wrongdoings and criteria for selecting and indemnifying victims, the 2004 book concludes with a discussion of three general explanatory factors: economic and political constraints, the retributive emotions, and the play of party politics.

Book Description
This book articulates how crime prevention research and practice can be reimagined for an increasingly digital world. This ground-breaking work explores how criminology can apply longstanding, traditional crime prevention techniques to the digital realm. It provides an overview of the key principles, concepts and research literature associated with crime prevention, and discusses the interventions most commonly applied to crime problems. The authors review the theoretical underpinnings of these and analyses evidence for their efficacy. Cybercrime Prevention is split into three sections which examine primary prevention, secondary prevention and tertiary prevention. It provides a thorough discussion of what works and what does not, and offers a formulaic account of how traditional crime prevention interventions can be reimagined to apply to the digital realm.
