Faţete ale rezilienţei din perspectiva ştiinţelor sociale
Facets of Resilience in a Social Sciences Perspective

Summary/Abstract: The development or identification of the most efficient models of knowledge, as well as the study of the modes of engagement of the social structures involved in the execution of the act of justice, calls for the establishment of integrative, modular and evolutionary models. These are based both on interdisciplinary knowledge and on changing some mentalities and stimulating innovative and creative ideas. The space of justice in general and the criminal justice in particular, has known a continuous transformation. Criminal justice as a basic pylon in the legal system, uses a series of concepts such as resocialization, reintegration and last but not least, psychological and social rehabilitation of offenders which benefits from a series of transformations due to recognized developments in the field of social and human sciences. Regarding from a legal and social perspective, resilience acquires new approaches and a significant theorization, it being able to include a series of processes and strategies that lead not only to a more efficient restoration of damaged social relationships, but also to an increased capacity of justice with a preventive and recuperative role. Compared to this conceptual construction, we can appreciate that legal resilience connects the classic and traditional axis of justice with the latest developments in the social sciences. Legal resilience thus represents not only a concept, but also an evolving process, respectively a social healing strategy with an integrative approach for all its protagonists. It starts from the premise that not only the victims have suffered as a result of the crime committed, but also the offender himself and the community as a whole. This new approach uses the criminal justice system as a vehicle for resilience.
