Victim Meets Offender by Mark Umbreit Pdf

Victim Meets Offender (1993) is truly a seminal publication in the restorative justice movement. It represents the first multi-state empirical study of the impact of restorative justice dialogue through the first and most widely used restorative justice practice, namely victim offender mediation (also referred to as victim offender reconciliation, victim offender conferencing, or victim offender dialogue). Examining programs in California, Minnesota, New Mexico, and Texas, this book provides comparison group data on client satisfaction, victim perceptions of fairness, and completion of restitution. Recidivism data is also included. After more than three decades, Umbreit’s seminal publication remains the most widely cited restorative justice study and has influenced policy development and practice in North and South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, and the Middle East.

Confidentiality and Victim-offender Mediation by Renske A. M. Schijndel Pdf

Victim-offender mediation is increasingly used around the world as a way of dealing with crime. The growing attention for victim-offender mediation and its benefits has instigated the call for principles and rules governing the practice of penal mediation. This has led to the development of international protocols that promote and facilitate the institutionalization and use of victim-offender mediation. One of the key elements of these protocols is the principle of confidentiality, which requires the secrecy of everything that is said and done during a mediation session. Such a broad interpretation of confidentiality may, however, cause problems in practice, especially since the context of penal mediation is often that of criminal and civil law. This book reports on a research project into the appropriate level of confidentiality for mediation-delivered information. It describes various exceptions to the default high level of mediation confidentiality, and it explains how the advocated levels of mediation confidentiality can be implemented in practice.
