Books by Gerry Johnstone (University of Hull, UK)

Gerry Johnstone is Professor of Law at the University of Hull, UK, where he has taught since 1989. He is best known for his work analysing the ideas, values and practices of restorative justice. He is the author of Restorative Justice: Ideas, Values, Debates (Willan, 2002), editor of A Restorative Justice Reader (Willan, 2003) and co-editor with Daniel W. Van Ness of Handbook of Restorative Justice (Willan, 2006). As part of this interest, he is exploring the roles which restorative justice might play in addressing historical injustices and grievances. In this context, his work connects up with the recent surge of interest in reparations for slavery. Along with Professor Richardson, he recently obtained university funding to award a PhD studentship in this area. He is interested, more generally, in supervising and collaborating with research projects around this theme.
