Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of Western Ontario (Canada), 2009.

This thesis investigates the implementation of restorative justice (rj) in public schools in southern Ontario. In particular by describing and analyzing how provincial policies, school boards, and educators practically interpret restorative justice principles this work contributes to a deeper theoretical understanding of restorative justice in education so that its transformative potential can be experienced and sustained. This study is important given that theoretical and evidence-based research to support the growing global practices associated with rj is limited (Braithwaite, 2006; Morrison, 2006) and the voices and experiences of educators engaged with rj on a daily basis have rarely been presented or examined for insight into its effective implementation and sustainability.

520 $a This thesis investigates the implementation of restorative justice (rj) in public schools in southern Ontario. In particular by describing and analyzing how provincial policies, school boards, and educators practically interpret restorative justice principles this work contributes to a deeper theoretical understanding of restorative justice in education so that its transformative potential can be experienced and sustained. This study is important given that theoretical and evidence-based research to support the growing global practices associated with rj is limited (Braithwaite, 2006; Morrison, 2006) and the voices and experiences of educators engaged with rj on a daily basis have rarely been presented or examined for insight into its effective implementation and sustainability.
520 $a Critical theory and the anti-oppressive, dialogic insights provided by Freire, hooks, and Lederach provide a theoretical framework for this qualitative, narrative, case study. It focuses on two different schools in two different Ontario school boards each of which adopted different approaches to implementing rj. Though each school and school board is committed to engaging with rj to develop relationship-based cultures, a number of obstacles preventing its successful implementation and sustainability were uncovered especially in regard to policy, leadership and pedagogy.
520 $a In essence the findings of these case studies indicate that by failing to address the structural and institutional influences acting on school participants, rj is reduced to a decontextualizing, skill-building exercise for managing conflict at the level of the behaviour of students in schools. Implications arising from the findings include the need for a broader conceptualization of restorative justice that more clearly defines its underlying philosophy and principles, on-going, critical examination of the current training practices and rj theories for their reinforcement of power relations that underlie the punitive, rule-based cultures they are attempting to replace, and the need for embedding rj within pedagogy and curriculum.
