Sharpe, S. Restorative justice: a vision for healing and change, c1998: p. 7 (Restorative justice is fundamentally different from retributive justice ... The philosophy identified here as restorative justice is similar to what others call healing justice, satisfying justice, or transformative justice. This approach echoes what has been traditional justice in aboriginal cultures around the world. Restorative justice can be achieved through various practices, including victim-offender mediation, sentencing circles, and community conferencing.)
