ABSTRACT

This chapter describes the emerging body of evidence by sharing the preliminary findings of a study investigating the justice perspectives of a group of sexual violence survivors. It focuses on recognition, voice and consequences to draw out the implications for the further development of restorative approaches in cases of sexual violence. The chapter describes that survivors' understandings of justice extend beyond the parameters of conventional and restorative approaches, echoes the participants in Herman's study whose views of justice were 'neither restorative nor retributive in the conventional sense'. Justice was not synonymous with the conventional criminal justice system for the participants. Kaleidoscopic justice is justice as a continually shifting pattern; justice constantly refracted through new circumstances, experiences and understandings; justice as non-linear, with multiple beginnings and possible endings; and justice as a lived, on-going and ever-evolving experience without certain ending or result.
