Description
healing and restitution, safety and community.
So what do justice and accountability look like for those who have been harmed? For those who have done harm? How might a biblical vision of shalom and forgiveness change the lens through
which we view crime and justice? Twenty-five years after it was first published, Changing Lenses by Howard Zehr remains the classic text of the restorative justice field. Now with valuable author updates on victim offender conferencing and circle processes and a new section of resources and recommended reading, Changing Lenses shatters our assumptions about crime and offers provocative new paradigms for public policy and judicial reform.
Think you understand crime, the courts, and what real justice looks like? Changing Lenses asks you to think again.
Advance Praise
"This book will change how you think about wrongdoing and justice and mercy. Howard Zehr is insightful as he guides readers through the power of restorative justice and shows us why we need a new way forward."—Leymah Gbowee, winner of 2011 Nobel Peace Prize
“Maybe one day we’ll integrate some of the principles of civil law into criminal justice, as Howard Zehr advises in his book Changing Lenses.” —Sister Helen Prejean, in Dead Man Walking
“Now that our nation is finally beginning to come to terms with the immorality and irrationality of our criminal injustice system, I hope that we will reread Howard Zehr’s classic text, Changing Lenses, and accept his challenge to reimagine what justice ought to look like.” —Michelle Alexander, author of The New Jim Crow
