| description | The aim of the paper is to present the views of the doctrine on the mediation
and the benefits it brings to the victim, the perpetrator and society. The
paper analyses the significance of implementation of the European Parliament
and Council Directive 2012/29. This document, devoted to victims’ rights
protection, has had significant impact on introducing restorative justice
provisions into the Polish Code of Criminal Procedure of 1997. The paper
discusses effectiveness of mediation in the Polish criminal procedure. It
also examines statistical data collected from Polish courts regarding
mediation. The conclusion is that mediation does not constitute a
competitive institution towards the traditional judicial system which still
remains the only „supplier“ of cases for mediation in criminal matters in
Poland. |
