Popis: Restorative Justice emerges as a new paradigm of conflict resolution, replacing or complementing the traditional punitive system, in order to present a less harmful and more humanitarian and reparative response. In this context comes the Law n.º 21/2007, responsible for regulating adult mediation in Portugal. Although the law represents an important milestone in the country's criminal policy, there are serious flaws in its writing that excessively diminish its applicability.
