El papel de la mediación penal en el proceso de cambio del infractor
Publicado
29-10-2018
Resumen
El objetivo principal de este artículo es conocer la capacidad de la justicia restaurativa de incidir en el desistimiento del comportamiento antisocial o delictivo, con el fin de identificar el rol de la mediación en los potenciales procesos de cambio (Prochaska & DiClemente, 1983; 1984) de los infractores. Los resultados muestran que es posible identificar infractores en todos los estadios del cambio. Entre los diversos factores relacionados con la motivación y con el proceso de cambio, la mayoría de los infractores identifican la mediación como un punto de inflexión o elemento significativo en ese camino hacia la vida pro social. Los resultados muestran la complejidad del proceso de cambio y la dificultad que los infractores tienen a la hora de conseguir, pero sobre todo de mantener, este cambio.
