the process may take a number of forms, notably victim-offender mediations, conferences, sentencing circles, reparative boards, restitution, and community service (Elis, 2005).
Utilising different designs, from anecdotal accounts to randomised assignments, research in this area has shown that restorative justice can generate positive outcomes. By bringing parties to a wrongful act together, restorative justice can contribute to victim recovery, offender satisfaction, compliance with restitution, and recidivism (Dzur, 2003; Stamatakis & Vandeviver, 2013). Indeed, restorative justice has ever more been suggested as a useful way of addressing the problem of recidivism, also known as repeat offending. In their meta-analysis of 22 studies, comparing the effectiveness of restorative justice programs… Continue Reading...

creating values in the workers that celebrate community service and appreciation for the public. This will then allow the workers to see what values they should be pursuing.
Conclusion
The importance of applying a motivational theory to a performance issue at work can be seen in this case study example. The management team at the radio station was unclear as to why workers were not motivated to participate in the fund drive that occurred every season throughout the year. The managers did not apply the Maslow model of needs and so they could not tell that the… Continue Reading...
community service. The fake test takers and bribe takers may not be so fortunate. This a big case with big names: prosecutors stand to make a name for themselves—but there are also some powerful and influential people involved, which means a few will be scapegoated and the rest will be absolved.
Conclusion
The admissions cheating scandal has revealed a lot about the way America works—especially when it comes to the world of wealthy elites, top-tier colleges, and the people behind the scenes. Be that as it may, it is important… Continue Reading...

When these motorists are in violation of the law, it places the lives of the children at risk. Increasing enforcement of the unlawful passing law is a pivotal objective. Devoid of the threat of enforcement and also devoid of the general public actually perceiving or hearing regarding the law that is being enforced and the more stringent fines, these regulations will barely have… Continue Reading...
