The paper looks at the phenomenon of restorative justice used to humanise justice by enabling offenders to interact with their victims in order to explain the reasons behind the offence and render appropriate reparation. The paper argues whether restorative justice has reduced recidivism rates more than criminal justice, and evaluates its benefits for the offender, the victim and the community.
