ABSTRACT
This chapter, firstly, presents the experience of shame and shamelessness psychoanalysed as an embodied experience. The perpetrator is experienced as both a physical and emotional intruder violating boundaries and seeking a victim to carry the denied shame of narcissistic wounding and catastrophic emotional overload. Racial discrimination can be seen as the representative of one racial group borrowing a collective identity from the group to treat as inferior and discriminate against a member of a different racial group. Professor Susan Long has defined the perverse and destructive capacity of organisations to exploit the humane and socially respectful aspect of their workforce, their client base and their stakeholders. Restorative Justice (RJ) is a value based movement, searching for a means of involving victim(s) and perpetrator(s) in a mediated conference meeting. Attempts to provide managed care in a prison through the arm of the law may protect public and perpetrator, but not perpetrators from each other.
