“This chapter will address the difficult subject of the place of community, society and state in restorative justice. These concepts are used interchangeably, which creates confusion. I will look at restorative justice literature in an attempt to distinguish these concepts and clarify their meaning. This should enhance the understanding of what restorative justice stands for.” (abstract)
