Whereas "retributive justice" attempts to figure out who is to blame and how to punish, "restorative justice" aims to restore what was torn in the social fabric, to repair relationships and set things on a better course for the future. Inspired by ancient approaches to justice among a variety of native cultures, restorative justice is proving to be transformational in the modern world where it is used. It is useful in schools, communities, and other places, as well as in criminal/civil justice settings.
