The focus of this article is on assessing and comparing different justice mechanisms in responding to sexual violence and violent victimisation more generally. To do that, a perspective on justice processes is required, and the perspective the author develops here and applies empirically in chapter 7, is a victim’s perspective. As that chapter will show, a victim’s perspective is not narrow or self-centred, but widens to embrace others in a justice activity, including admitted offenders, supporters of victims and offenders, and a wider societal view on the wrong and harm of sexual violence.
