Abstract

The research will conceive restorative justice and therapeutic jurisprudence as two sides of the same coin, and one is the result of the other as a major development in criminological thinking. Notwithstanding, roots in a variety of indigenous cultures, including spirituality and holistic healing traditions and strives to re-connect offenders with their surroundings and communities. The objective of this research is to explore the experiences of victims and offenders involved in restorative justice practices, concerning increase in their general well-being, self-esteem, and satisfaction of the process and decrease in their feeling of shame, guilt, stress, regret, and anger. Restorative justice mechanisms enhance therapeutic jurisprudence through restoration, resilience, reconciliation, reintegration, rehabilitation, reformation, and resocialization among victims and offenders. Another objective is to understand from practitioners whether restorative practices facilitate conflict resolution and discuss the alternate conflict resolution model for restorative justice and therapeutic jurisprudence.
