Answer to Question 1

Antisocial personality

Answer to Question 2

 The offender is asked to recognize that he or she caused injury to personal and social relations along with a determination and acceptance of responsibility (ideally accompanied by a statement of remorse). Only then can the offender be restored as a productive member of the community.
 Restoration involves turning the justice system into a healing process rather than being a distributor of retribution and revenge.
 Reconciliation is a big part o of the restorative approach. Most people involved in offender-victim relationships actually know one another or were related in some way before the criminal incident took place.
 Instead of treating one of the involved parties as a victim deserving of sympathy and the other as a criminal deserving of punishment, it is more productive to address the issues that produced conflict between these people.
 The effectiveness of justice ultimately depends on the stake a person has in the community (or a particular social group).
 If a person does not value his or her membership in the group, the person will be unlikely to accept responsibility, show remorse, or repair the injuries caused by his or her actions. In contrast, people who have a stake in the community and its principle institutions, such as work, home, and school, find that their involvement enhances their personal and familial well-being.
 There must be a commitment to the victim to make both material (monetary) restitution and symbolic reparation (an apology).
 A determination must be made of community support and assistance for both victim and offender.
 The intended result of the process is to repair injuries suffered by the victim and the community while assuring reintegration of the offender.
 Student views will vary.
