Restorative Justice is really a theory on addressing offenders in the criminal justice system. It really focuses on repairing (hence restorative) the harm caused to the victim. This could be through community service or even mediation between the victim and the offender. While in the typical criminal justice models it is very offender focused, restorative justice has a larger focus on the victim and repairing the harm caused to the victim/ community instead of just punishing the offender.
It's just another name for specific deterrence--i.e., the idea that by punishing an offender severely enough (by harming the offender), he or she will not reoffend.
Restitution is a common practice in criminal justice systems where offenders are required to compensate victims for the harm caused by their actions. It can help victims recover losses and hold offenders accountable for their actions. However, factors such as an offender's financial situation and willingness to comply can impact the effectiveness of restitution orders.
delict is less harm than crime.
Delict is a civil wrong that causes harm to someone's person, property, or reputation, while crime is a violation of a criminal law that is punishable by the state. Delict generally involves compensation to the victim, while crime involves punishment by the criminal justice system.
Victimless crime
The only way this could happen is if the homeowner committed greater harm defending himself than the offender could have caused. For instance, if a burglar came into your house unarmed and you decided to shoot him or stab him, you could be charged with assault. If however a burglar broke into your home and a physical fight ensued and you were fighting for your life and you seriously injured the person or killed him, you would not be culpable of a crime.
expect them to harm or harass their captors
The proverb "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth" means that the punishment should match the crime. It suggests that justice should be fair and proportional, advocating for the concept of retributive justice where the offender should receive a punishment similar to the harm they caused.
Judging how long an offender's sentence will be based not only on their offence but as prevention of future harm they might do to society
The Formula for crime is: Crime = Law + Mens Rea + Actus Reus ---> Harm which is to say that a crime is: The braking of a law in which a concurrent mental element is present as well as the actual act which brakes the law resulting in harm or in it's most simple form: A crime is when a law is in place and someone brakes that law with full knowledge what they are doing is illegal, and their actions result in harm to a person, people, the state etc.
