ABSTRACT
This introduction presents an overview of key concepts discussed in the subsequent chapters of this book. The book focuses on how positive criminology, and its underlying concept, can also reach and have a positive impact on victimology. It explores how the notion of positive criminology can fit within the criminal justice system. The book explains possible relationship between positive criminology and the court system, mainly by synergizing the concept with therapeutic jurisprudence. It continues the exploration into the relationship of the two theories by focusing on lawyers' practice with youth defendants and possible therapeutic outcomes. The book discusses the manner in which defense lawyers can reflect positive criminology themes, therapeutic techniques and foster therapeutic consequences that can assist youth offenders in refraining from crime. The book explores the role of positive victimology in domestic violence cases and posttraumatic growth in ultra-Orthodox Jewish women groups.
