Career

As a criminologist, he is particularly interested in the role of restorative justice, shame management and reintegration in crime prevention. His book ''Crime, Shame and Reintegration'' (1989) demonstrated that current criminal justice practice tends to stigmatize offenders, making the crime problem worse. Braithwaite argues that restorative justice enables both offenders and citizens, by way of mediation, to repair the social harm caused by crime. He has also worked with

One of his recent books, ''Anomie and Violence: Non-truth and Reconciliation in Indonesian Peacebuilding'', found that peacebuilding in Papua, Maluku and North Maluku, Central Sulawesi, West Kalimantan and Central Kalimantan, and Aceh was largely achieved through non-truth and reconciliation.J.
