Pratītyasamutpāda, Social Comprehension & Accountability In The Framework Of Restorative Justice




Ishaan Deepak Joshi, MIT-WPU, Faculty of Law

ABSTRACT

The approach of restorative justice seeks to eradicate the fundamental root causes of the issue while resolving the dispute at its core. From the perspective of restorative justice, addressing only the apparent signs of a dispute through punishment is ineffective in resolving the underlying cause. True change necessitates mental shifts and is unable to come externally; it must be encouraged to be cultivated from within. Discourse can result in a deeper shared comprehension of all viewpoints and sentiments regarding the conflict, thereby supporting the process of change. Attaining transition is possible by making reparations, which could entail compensation, apologies, and an improvement in conduct. The paper explores the manner in which the basic tenets of the restorative justice approach connect with ideas and principles encountered in Buddhism, and juxtaposes comparisons in the fundamental principles of the theories.
