Explain the concept of peacemaking criminology and how it differs from other forms of conflict criminology

What will be an ideal response?


Peacemaking criminology views crime as a type of suffering and past attempts to deal with crime only involves subjecting society to more suffering. The end of crime can come only when there is an end to suffering, which must be achieved through compassion and the awareness of our connectedness to all things. Instead of punishment and prison, peacemaking advocates mediation and conflict resolution.
