Justicia restaurativa en violencia intrafamiliar y de género

Abstract

This paper presents an analysis of the implementation of criminal mediation as a collaborative mechanism for conflict resolution within the family and relationships, from a criminological perspective. It advocates comprehensive solutions for the people involved in such experiences, exploring the limits and possibilities that these mechanisms of Restorative Justice may supply parties and the community itself. They could additionally allow access to reparatory measures and agreements that are sustainable over time. This collaborative process to address such conflicts and its consequences are compared with the current arrangements of Chilean criminal justice.
