Qualification in Crime Prevention
Until recently crime prevention has been considered of little importance in the training of practitioners in related disciplines. In Europe there is a lack of opportunities for basic training and professional development. It can be assumed that the demand for qualified specialists and managers in crime prevention will increase. It was the objective of the Beccaria-Center Professional Training in Crime Prevention to work on closing this gap. With the financial support of the AGIS-programme of the European Commission, the project was implemented by the Council of Crime Prevention of Lower Saxony, Germany with eight European partners. This compilation from the involved countries reflects the current situation of qualification in crime prevention. The contributions show that it is necessary to expand basic training and further professional development opportunities in crime prevention. They clearly demonstrate that the demand for high quality and sustainable crime prevention is higher than ever and there is a clear lack of such training offers in Germany and in Europe more widely.
Restorative Justice
Gibt es für die notwendige Transformation unserer Gesellschaft eine Theorie, die sozialen Frieden anstrebt und Menschenrechte in den Mittelpunkt stellt? Im vorliegenden Buch verdeutlicht Otmar Hagemann, der sich als Soziologe, Viktimologe und Kriminologe versteht, sein Konzept der heilenden Gerechtigkeit (Restorative Justice) gleichermaßen als Theorie, Paradigma und Philosophie auf dem Weg zu einer Restorative Society. Der Begriff stammt von deutschen Theologen, wird heute häufig als Alternative zur strafrechtlichen Konfliktbearbeitung oder als dritter Weg zwischen Strafe und Behandlung in modernen Gesellschaften verstanden, sollte aber möglichst als Konzept auf allen Ebenen aller Lebens...

Women and Children as Victims and Offenders: Background, Prevention, Reintegration
This work compiles experiences and lessons learned in meeting the unique needs of women and children regarding crime prevention and criminal justice, in particular the treatment and social reintegration of offenders and serves as a cross-disciplinary work for academic and policy-making analyses and follow-up in developing and developed countries. Furthermore, it argues for a more humane and effective approach to countering delinquency and crime among future generations. In a world where development positively depends on the rule of law and the related investment security, two global trends may chart the course of development: urbanization and education. Urbanization will globalize the concep...
Understanding restorative justice
This unique book is a clear and detailed introduction that analyses how restorative justice nurtures empathy, exploring key themes such as responsibility, shame, forgiveness and closure. The core notion of the book is that when a crime is committed, it separates people, creating a ‘gap’. This can only be reduced or closed through information and insight about the other person, which have the potential to elicit empathy and compassion from both sides. The book explores this extraordinary journey from harm to healing using the structure of a timeline: from an offence, through the criminal justice process and into the heart of the restorative meeting. Using case studies, the book offers a fresh angle on a topic that is of growing interest both in the UK and internationally. It is ideal as a comprehensive introduction for those new to restorative justice and as a best practice guide for existing practitioners.
