Conferencing Handbook: The New real Justice Training ManualBy Terry O’Connell, Ben Wachtel and Ted Wachtel$25, Book (paperback), 168 pagesPublished by The Piper’s Press

This official training manual is a clearly conceived procedural guide to coordinating and facilitating conferences, covering the process of selecting cases, inviting participants, making preparations and running the conference itself. It is useful to anyone who wants to learn to facilitate conferences in school, criminal justice and other settings. Included are samples of literature and forms from actual conferencing programs.

NEW Now available in Spanish-translated version—Manual de Reuniones Restaurativas: El Nuevo Manual de Capacitación Real Justice, $15. The 77-page Spanish version does not include program literature samples as in the English edition.

Little Book of restorative JusticeBy Howard Zehr $5 Book (paperback), 64 pages Published by Good Books

A concise overview of restorative justice, this 64-page book proposes workable principles and practices for making restorative justice both possible and useful. Zehr, known worldwide for his pioneering work in transforming our understanding of justice, is co-director of the graduate Conflict Transformation Program at Eastern Mennonite University, Harrisonburg, Virginia, USA.

Concerned with the rapid and diverse growth of the restorative justice movement, Zehr wrote this book to provide a clear vision of principles and goals—a compass to find the way along a path that might sometimes become winding and muddy. Accordingly, he expresses well-defined opinions about what restorative justice is, as well as about what restorative justice is not.

rEAL JUSTiCEBy Ted Wachtel $15 Book (paperback), 208 pages Published by The Piper’s Press

The founder of the Real Justice movement uses actual conference stories to show how conferencing works and how it can change the way our society responds to wrongdoing in schools, criminal justice, the workplace and elsewhere. He demonstrates how conferencing benefits victims, offenders and the community by actively involving those affected by wrongdoing in the process of repairing the harm and by fostering the closure and the emotional healing which is largely denied in our current systems.

Crime, Shame and reintegrationBy John Braithwaite$25, Book (paperback), 226 pagesPublished by Cambridge University Press

Although written without knowledge of the conferencing process, Australian criminologist John Braithwaite’s book provides a sociological explanation for why conferencing works so well.

Braithwaite explains that the desire to avoid shame aids in the development of conscience and social bonds. He distinguishes between two types of shame: stigmatizing shame, which rejects and permanently labels offenders, and reintegrative shame, which only rejects the offender’s deed but not the offender.

Conferences encourage positive personal change in offenders because unlike courts, conferences allow offenders to shed their offender label and be reintegrated into the community.

Shame and pride: Affect, Sex, and the Birth of the SelfBy Donald L. Nathanson $20 Book (paperback), 496 pages Published by W.W. Norton & Company

Donald Nathanson’s book provides the psychological explanation for why conferencing works. A Philadelphia psychiatrist, author and lecturer, Nathanson wrote Shame and Pride before he was aware of conferencing, explaining and building upon the affect and script theories of the late Silvan S. Tomkins.

Nathanson has become an advocate of conferencing. When a crime is committed, Nathanson said in an interview, everyone involved experiences very extreme negative affect, but the court process fails to address this. Conferences, on the other hand, allow for the free expression of affect, which helps people move beyond the negative to the positive and deal with the adverse emotional consequences of the crime.

restorative policing Experiment: The Bethlehem pennsylvania police Family Group Conferencing projectBy Paul McCold and Benjamin Wachtel$15Staplebound report, 140 pagesPublished by the Community Service Foundation

This is the full final report on the two-year, National Institute of Justice-funded, police conferencing project in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, USA, in which first-time juvenile offenders were randomly assigned to either a conference or court.The study, completed in May 1998, addresses six key questions: (1) Can typical American police officers conduct conferences consistent with due process and restorative justice principles?; (2) Does conferencing transform police attitudes, organizational culture and role perceptions?; (3) Does conferencing produce conflict-reducing outcomes by helping to solve ongoing problems and reduce recidivism?; (4) Will victims, offenders and the community accept a police-based restorative justice response?; (5) How does the introduction of conferencing alter the case processing of juvenile offenders?; (6) How does conferencing compare to the existing system and to other restorative justice practices?

Toxic Talk: From Betrayal to Trust in a Workplace$25DVD-Video, 22 minutesProduced by the IIRP/Good Company

Toxic Talk shows an actual restorative conference following a workplace incident, where staff members demeaned their supervisor behind her back and in the presence of customers. The conference, by providing all involved with a structured setting to express their emotions freely and honestly, transformed negative feelings created by the incident into positive ones, restored relationships and created a healthier work environment. This restorative experience stands in stark contrast to the way most workplace conflicts are handled, where negative feelings fester and toxic talk persists.

Building Our Community: A film about restorative practices$25DVD-Video, 15 minutesProduced by the IIRP/SaferSanerSchools

Building Our Community is a documentary about the positive impact of restorative practices at Collingwood Primary School, in Hull, UK, a city facing some of the most acute economic and social challenges in England. Once a

school in crisis, through the adoption of restorative practices Collingwood built a highly positive school culture and an exceptional sense of community, and helped pupils develop skills to feel respected, happy and able to make the most of their lives.

This upbeat, informative video features interviews with teachers, students and parents sharing how they’ve benefited from the self-knowledge and empowerment developed during the restorative journey. An engaging introduction to restorative practices in a school determined to give everyone a voice and a strong foundation for academic and emotional growth.
