Answer to Question 1

The restorative justice model maintains that the true purpose of the criminal justice system is to promote a peaceful, just society; they advocate peacemaking, not punishment. Mutual aid rather than coercive punishment is the key to a harmonious society, as punitive methods of correction (such as jail and prison) are no more effective than more humanitarian efforts (such as probation with treatment).
