Application of Restorative Justice Theory in Aboriginal Criminal Justice Process in Canada: An Analysis
Journal Title: Business Ethics and Leadership (BEL) - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Aboriginal is the first nation in Canada. Their beliefs and behavior, culture and tradition, and the socio-economic process are different from traditional contemporary Canadian. Thus they do not believe traditional litigation or win-lose contest of criminal justice process rather prefer the resolution by understanding. The Canadian traditional criminal justice system comes from the western approach; therefore, this system is a mismatch with aboriginal traditional culture and value. There is a significant difference between the aboriginal justice process and predominant traditional criminal justice process exist in Canada. Canadian traditional criminal justice system does not acknowledge specialized aboriginal background. As a result, contemporary Canadian criminal justice system cannot ensure the aboriginal’s right. Therefore, the different study shows that the alternative criminal justice system is urgently needed for Canadian aboriginal people. This alternative criminal justice system is referred here as the Restorative Justice (RJ) process.
