description
One of the debates of restorative justice (RJ) literature is the possible effect that diversionary restorative justice practices (that is, practices implemented within the criminal procedure that may have a direct influence on the outcome of the legal procedure) may have on victims’ experiences. It has been argued that, when implemented within the criminal justice system, restorative justice runs the risk of becoming offender-oriented. This presentation aims to share and discuss results of a qualitative research focused on the experiences of victims of crime who were contacted by Basque and Catalonian mediation programs. Fifty victims were interviewed before mediation and thirty-five were interviewed six months after. These interviewees included participants of direct and indirect mediation as well as victims who refused to take part in mediation. It will be argued that victims value the room for dialogue offered by RJ diversionary schemes but, at the same time, see mediation as a strategy determined by the characteristics of the criminal justice system.

description
The phenomenon of victim participation in restorative justice (RJ) has been studied from two main angles: describing victims’ motivations to take part in RJ and studying the benefits that different groups of victims may obtain when participating in RJ. However, methodological limitations of former studies have impeded to offer conclusive answers to the question ‘for whom is RJ’. This article offers insights into these issues, focusing on the descriptive findings of a mixed-method study carried out in the context of victim-offender mediation (in Spain and Belgium) and assessed before the encounter (if any) took place. Findings suggest that, before mediation, victims’ personal characteristics tend to differ. The factor ‘victim-offender relationship’ also appeared as an important variable. Implications of these findings are discussed.
