Description

In Compulsory Compassion, Annalise Acorn, a one-time advocate for restorative justice, deconstructs the rhetoric of the restorative movement. Drawing from diverse legal, literary, philosophical, and autobiographical sources, she questions the fundamental assumptions behind that rhetoric: that we can trust wrongdoers' capacity for meaningful accountability and respectful community, and that we can, in good conscience, deploy the idea that healing lies in (re)encounter to seduce victims to participate in restorative processes. Review Compulsory Compassion is the most searching critique of restorative justice to date. It's an eloquently passionate and yet brilliantly and devastatingly critical take on some very under-examined assumptions about mercy, compassion, and justice. Author: Robert Weisberg, Edwin E. Huddleson Jr. Professor of Law, Stanford University Book Description A multi-faceted consideration and critique of the compelling and emotionally seductive rhetoric of restorative justice. From the Author Annalise Acorn is a professor of law at the University of Alberta. About the Author Annalise Acorn is a professor of law at the University of Alberta.
