Toward a culturally competent restorative justice practice framework A focus on asian americans / [electronic resource] : Jung Jin Choi, PhD, MSW, Margaret Severson, JD, MSW. - pp. 399-406.

This article suggests a culturally competent restorative justice practice framework for Asian Americans. In developing the framework, the historical development and contemporary issues of restorative justice in the West are explored, and the salient cultural traits and core elements of cultural competence with Asians and Asian Americans are examined. Tentative principles are advanced and recommendations are made for developing a culturally competent restorative justice practice framework for this cultural group, who now constitute 4.4% of the American populace, and for whom harmony in interpersonal relationships and the power of shaming are key considerations.
