The purpose of this new study, which originates from COST Action A21, is to take forward the existing materials contained in Mapping Restorative Justice and in other European overviews. This new book provides a deeper and more reflective account of the genesis and current significance of restorative justice provisions within 14 selected European countries. Each country contribution therefore addresses in great detail the background and contents of its legislation, both at primary and subordinate level. The authors in this book not only evaluate their legal structures against applicable international standards, but they also analyse the social and political function of restorative justice legislation and they reflect on how different types of regulation further shape and determine restorative justice principles and practices.

‘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.

Public Perception of Paedophilia A Comparative Study

The impression continuously arises in public debates that paedophile individuals are a homogeneous group of people that society unanimously rejects – and that this is the only way society can react.

This comparative study, however, takes a differentiated view of the paedophiles themselves and of the attitudes of German and British students towards paedophilia. Using stigma theory as a theoretical basis and a data set of 4,000 responses, differing degrees of stigmatisation could be identified between the British and German students. It is this knowledge that leads to a complex discussion on the topic and an appropriate action plan for handling paedophile individuals.

Strengthening democrativ processes: Police oversight through Restorative Justice with a special focus on Austria, Hungary and Germany

Establishing democratic processes in police-citizen affairs can be considered as major challenge of 21st century policing. Current incidents of citizens complaining about disrespectful, unprofessional, or even violent policing show that managing citizen complaints should not start, when a case is brought to court, but way before, e.g. in form of police oversight, police complaint systems, or restorative justice. Indeed, it should consider the special needs and circumstances of persons with ethnic minority background that are often unaware of their democratic rights and obligations. The present book gives an overview of legal bases and approaches of police oversight and restorative justice as well as best practice approaches of fostering dialogue between police and (ethnic minority) citizens. Moreover, latest research and cases of Germany, Austria, and Hungary are introduced as well as approaches from the US and Australia.

Extended Expert Report

Due to developments in crime, public disorder and society in general, police forces across Europe are increasingly confronted with cross-border cases. As a result, the need for police cooperation intensifies and more and more police practice is based on scientific knowledge. CEPOL asked a group of experts from six European countries to reflect on these developments. Why do senior police officers need research and science? What kind of scientific knowledge fits their professional framework? How do they make use of it?
The report, including expert commentaries, ventures to provide some answers by exploring key questions and aims to open a further discussion about modern day police science and potential paths towards a European approach.

This research publication examines criminal offences pertaining to the smuggling of migrants in international, European, and Austrian laws. It outlines the criminalization requirements under the United Nations (UN) Protocol against the Smuggling of Migrants by Land, Sea and Air, supplementing the Convention against Transnational Organized Crime, international best practice guidelines developed by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), and relevant European Council Directives and Framework Decisions. The research then identifies and analyses domestic offences relating to smuggling of migrants in Austria and assesses the elements, scope, interpretation and application of relevant domestic offences in the Fremdenpolizeigesetz and the Strafgesetzbuch (Penal Code) against international standards.
The goal of this research is to outline and examine international and domestic offences relating to the smuggling of migrants, identify strengths and weaknesses, and develop recommendations to improve the criminalization of this phenomenon. The research seeks to promote awareness of the realities of this crime, analyze the international and Austrian criminal justice response to migrant smuggling, and identify best practice models that can serve to enhance the effectiveness of domestic and international efforts to combat the smuggling of migrants whilst protecting the rights of smuggled migrants.

Present book addresses a poly-crime conglomerate within the framework of a project funded by the EU from the ISF, which relates to illegal archaeological excavations, the trade in these cultural objects and, in particular, original forgeries: Original Fakes. The fact that illegal excavations and the trade in these objects are not in accordance with current law is unquestionable and at the same time, just like the production of supposedly original archaeological cultural property, the object of the profit motive – often by means of money laundering – of criminal networks, but may also have political backgrounds in parts. This thematic multi-layered character, as well as its negative impact on the historical-social dimensions of the exploitation and falsification of cultural property, defines a field of activity (not only related to law enforcement) to which the EU must pay increased attention for a variety of explained reasons.

Mit vorliegendem Buch wird im Rahmen eines von der EU aus dem ISF geförderten Projektes ein Polycrime-Konglomerat adressiert, das sich auf illegale archäologische Ausgrabungen, den Handel mit diesen Kulturgütern sowie insbesondere auf Fälschungen von Artefakten – Original Fakes – bezieht. Dass illegale Ausgrabungen und der Handel mit diesen Gegenständen nicht im Einklang mit geltendem Recht stehen, ist unzweifelhaft und zugleich, ebenso wie die Anfertigung vermeintlicher originaler archäologischer Kulturgüter, Gegenstand des Gewinnstrebens – mittels Geldwäsche – Krimineller Netzwerke, kann jedoch auch in Teilen politische Hintergründe haben. Durch diese thematische Mehrschichtigkeit sowie deren negative Auswirkungen auf die geschichtlich-gesellschaftlichen Dimensionen der Ausbeutung und Verfälschung von Kulturgütern wird ein (nicht nur strafvollzugsbezogenes) Tätigkeitsfeld definiert, auf das die EU aus einer Vielzahl von darzulegenden Gründen verstärktes Augenmerk zu legen hat.

Restorative Justice Wiederherstellung von ´Gerechtigkeit` durch die Begegnung von Opfer und Täter?

Lisa Breitkopf

Erscheinungsjahr: 2017

Preis: 19,80 EUR
173 Seiten

Opfer von Straftaten fühlen sich trotz zunehmender Bemühungen um eine rechtliche Verbesserung ihrer Stellung im Strafverfahren und Berücksichtigung der Tatfolgen, vielfach mit ihren tatsächlichen Bedürfnissen immer noch unbeachtet und in ihren Erwartungen häufig von Justiz und Öffentlichkeit fehlverstanden. Parallel dazu werden die Bedürfnisse des Täters und Erfordernisse, ein Leben ohne Straftaten zu führen sowie die Gründe der Straftat unzureichend hinterfragt. Der Täter scheint seine Chance in der Gemeinschaft verwirkt zu haben. Aber auch die resozialisierende Wirkung des Strafvollzuges scheint verfehlt.

An dieser Kontroverse setzt der Gedanke der „heilenden Gerechtigkeit“, der Restorative Justice, an. Restorative Justice verfolgt das Ziel, das Gleichgewicht zwischen Opfer und Täter nach dem einschneidenden Erlebnis einer Straftat wiederherzustellen. Eine Begegnung beider Seiten soll das Opfer bei der Bewältigung des Tatereignisses mit seinen Folgen stärken und gleichzeitig den Täter in seinem Bemühen um Verantwortungsübernahme unterstützen. Dabei kann der Täter-Opfer-Ausgleich als einen ersten Schritt in Deutschland betrachtet werden, ein restoratives Konzept rechtlich zu verankern.

Die unzureichende Berücksichtigung von Restorative Justice in Deutschland greift die vorliegende Arbeit auf und möchte anhand einer quantitativen Online-Befragung von (potenziellen) Opfern deren Bereitschaft für eine Begegnung und Wiederherstellung von Gerechtigkeit untersuchen.

Die Forschungsarbeit stellt sich der Herausforderung, eine Annäherung an den Themenkomplex der Restorative Justice zu wagen. Sie möchte einen Beitrag leisten, restorative Gedanken bei den Mitgliedern der Gesellschaft anzuregen, um sich wieder mehr auf das eigene Konfliktlösungsgeschick und die demokratische Verantwortung zu besinnen.

Predictive policing has been used as a “governance tool” in China for a decade, but as a “governance object,” it has only recently entered the research field. There are three major risks associated with predictive policing: prediction accuracy, service normativity, and social adaptability. Given the inherent uncertainties of predictions and the limitations of interventions, the aspiration to “stopping crime before it begins” remains a challenge. The future aim should be to elevate prediction accuracy and, within ethically and legally acceptable limits, convert predictive insights into tangible governance practices.
