Mediacja w sprawach karnych i nieletnich w prawie europejskim
Mediation in Criminal Proceedings and Cases Involving Minors Under European Law

Summary/Abstract: Mediation is an integral part of contemporary criminal law. It represents an implementation of restorative justice elements in penal policy. This allows the victim of a crime to be perceived no longer solely as a means of proof, but he or she becomes a lawful subject of criminal procedure, whose rights must be respected by everyone and whose interests must be fully protected. This paper, after presenting the idea of restorative justice, reviews European regulations on mediation in criminal cases firstly and in cases which include minors secondly.
