Produktbeschreibung

Justice on Both Sides provides an urgent, comprehensive account of restorative justice and how contemporary schools can implement effective restorative practices to address inequalities associated with race, class, and gender. Maisha T. Winn argues for restorative justice as a crucial answer, at least in part, to the unequal practices and opportunities in American schools. "Justice on Both Sides is a powerful book that makes the case for why restorative justice approaches in schools can make transformative changes for young people. Winn's extensive skills as a researcher, teacher, and teacher educator shine through in this sobering yet hopeful call for restoring justice in our schools and communities." > "This is the book the restorative justice field has been waiting for--one that centers on race and equity in the creation of restorative schools. Winn's writing weaves youth and adult voices into interdependent teachings on respectful, caring relationships and the positive learning environments they can produce." > "Justice on Both Sides offers a generative examination of the impact, complexities, and challenges of restorative justice practices in education. Winn's vision illustrates how these practices speak not just to the student, but to the school as a community and to our ability to socialize youth as active citizens in a democracy." > "Winn writes with sensitivity and care about the complex work of restorative justice through education. She takes readers inside the challenges and promise of collective efforts to transform school practice, and invites readers to join the struggle." >Maisha T. Winn is the Chancellor's Leadership Professor in the School of Education at the University of California, Davis, and codirector of the Transformative Justice in Education Center. H. Richard Milner IV is the Helen Faison Professor of Urban Education and director of the Center for Urban Education at the University of Pittsburgh, as well as the editor for the Race and Education Series.
