Transformative Justice
From Generation Five:
"Transformative justice [is] a liberatory approach to violence…[which] seeks safety and accountability without relying on alienation, punishment, or State or systemic violence, including incarceration or policing."
Where restorative practices creates opportunities to build community and transform interpersonal harm, and takes into account the needs of people who have harmed, people who have been harmed, and the community, transformative justice takes things a bit deeper by considering the need for transformation of systems that create harm.
