    A Few Remarks About Challenges in Application of Restorative Justice: A Case Study of Bosnia and Herzegovina
    (KUL Publishing House, 2022) Kazić-Çakar, Ena; Ćorović, Rialda
    Restorative justice is without any doubt one of the most important steps in the development of criminal law, which at the same time increased the level of humanity in the approach towards perpetrators and victims and managed to achieve the principle goals of criminal law. A few decades have passed since its idea and approach was borrowed from the traditional communities that among themselves applied it for centuries, and it was transformed into the new approach of justice offering many benefits to the community where it is established. Formally, it has been more than 20 years since Bosnia and Herzegovina embraced restorative justice within its criminal law. This paper aims to discuss how much de facto it has been applied in this country and to present results of interviews with representatives from legal theory and practice where they refer to restorative justice and its major challenges for application and propose mechanisms for overcoming existing difficulties. In this article, the authors use normative, descriptive scientific methods and statistics and interviews as tools for the collection of data.

    Is Restorative Justice An Appropriate Legal Remediation For Sexual Violence?
    (Wydawnictwo KUL, 2019) Kazić, Ena; Ćorović, Rialda
    This paper questions applicability of restorative justice in cases of sexual violence. Specific nature and serious consequences of sexual violence are the reason why this question has appeared. In order to find out the answer, the authors have presented the characteristics, mechanisms and nature of restorative justice, concurrently offering the comparison of arguments in favor of and against the applicability of restorative justice in this particularly sensitive type of criminal offences. Together with the review of diverse theoretical approaches to this matter, the authors have tested the applicability of restorative justice in cases of sexual violence in Bosnia and Herzegovina. In this paper normative, comparative and historical scientific methods have been used.
