ABSTRACT

Justice as a value and an achievement has always been a tricky field as it deals with both moral and political philosophy. The two principles of justice viz. Retributive and restorative have been in existence since long though theltters gained popularity as an alienate to the former in the 1970’s. Justice is incomplete without the two principles acting together and even that requires a careful examination of each and every case because any excess or absence of any one principle might result in anything but justice.

Keywords: Retributive, Restorative, Justice, Convergence.
