| 英文摘要 |
Restorative Justice (RJ) is currently an internationally recognized alternative criminal justice program that helps address the shortcomings and challenges of criminal justice. Although Taiwan has successively adopted amendments to incorporate the restorative justice into the Juvenile Justice Act, the Code of Criminal Procedure, and the Prison Act, there is no relevant empirical research on the application of RJ to domestic juvenile incidents. This article will introduce the international development of juvenile RJ in order to understand the relationships between the practice of RJ and juvenile’s rights to be heard, juvenile’s best interest, behavioral cognition of the party concerned, and healing from damage. Meanwhile, this article will refer to the cases of the restorative dialogue in the Juvenile Court of Taipei District Courthouse from May 2018 to January 2020 carried out by the Chinese Association for Restorative Justice. Data analysis was performed based on the survey and interviews conducted with the hope of providing reflections and research findings as well as further suggestions to contribute to the construction of localized juvenile restoration justice in the future.
