Abstract

Domestic violence (DV) is sometimes called a hidden crime because in many cases victims do not report the offence to the police. DV includes child abuse, intimate partner violence and elder abuse and comes in many forms, such as physical, sexual, emotional or financial abuse. Using restorative justice (RJ) methods in cases of DV is a highly controversial topic.4 However, in many countries around the world restorative practices are used in these cases with appropriate safeguarding in place. The aim of this article is to explore the different types of RJ methods and the different types of DV cases where these methods might be used with the potential benefits and challenges being discussed. Relevant articles and case studies were analysed to present previously conducted research on the topic of DV and RJ. The available literature shows that certain RJ practices are appropriate in certain types of DV cases but they need to be evaluated on an individual basis as these types of cases are very complex and need to be screened thoroughly before any kind of intervention. However, in addressing the concerns surrounding the use of RJ in DV cases, it is vital to listen to the victims themselves, by first giving them a voice. In conclusion, professionals working with victims and offenders of DV cases need to work more closely with others who work in RJ in order to make the process safer and to utilise the potential benefits of the process.

在家庭暴力案件中使用恢复性司法是否合适?
家庭暴力有时被称为隐性犯罪,因为在许多情况下,受害者不会向警方报案。家庭暴力包括虐待儿童、亲密伴侣暴力和虐待老人,并有多种形式,如身体、性、情感或经济虐待。在家庭暴力案件中使用恢复性司法(RJ)方法是一个极具争议的话题然而,世界上许多国家在这些情况下采用了恢复性做法,并采取了适当的保护措施。本文的目的是探讨不同类型的RJ方法和不同类型的DV案例,在这些案例中,这些方法可能被使用,并讨论潜在的好处和挑战。对相关文章和案例研究进行了分析,以介绍以前对DV和RJ主题进行的研究。现有文献表明,某些RJ做法适用于某些类型的家庭暴力病例,但需要根据个人情况进行评估,因为这些类型的病例非常复杂,需要在进行任何干预之前进行彻底筛查。然而,在解决关于在家庭暴力案件中使用RJ的问题时,听取受害者自己的意见是至关重要的,首先要给他们一个发言权。总之,与家庭暴力案件的受害者和罪犯打交道的专业人员需要与在家庭暴力案件中工作的其他人更密切地合作,以使这一过程更安全,并利用这一过程的潜在好处。
