This edited book is a comprehensive and analytical account of the victimological developments from an international perspective, specifically focusing on Restorative Justice. Restorative justice is a philosophy which views harm and crime as a violation of people and relationships and a holistic process that addresses the repercussions and obligations created by harm, with a view to putting things as right as possible. It is best practiced when guided by restorative values and principles and when those most affected are the focus. This book gives a comprehensive introduction to restorative justice and also to various associated issues of Victimology. It mainly focuses on five important issues: Restorative Justice; Dimensions of Victimization; Victim Types and classification; Restoring Justice to Women and Child victims; and Victims Services With both theoretical and empirical discussions all the contributors have provided wide-ranging views on the Cinderella of Criminology - Victimology. It is one of the significant additions to the field of Victimology, Criminology and Criminal Justice and could be much useful to the Victimologists, Criminologists, Practitioners, social workers, students, and those interested in Victimology focusing on restorative justice.
