Abstract

In the following sections of the paper we will; give an account of the three most debated models in restorative justice, discuss contemporary themes, trends and challenges, identify qualities most likely to enhance the capacity of restorative practices to promote core values, and, lastly, present a model of conflict-management developed in South-Africa that has been consciously designed to meet those requirements.
