dialect. Primarily, Faulkner utilizes the

to cringe at the word retributive. We learn that
retributive justice is the antithesis to
restorative principles, and is a necessary evil at
best. However, the logic behind this assumption is
flawed, and hence not conducive to the optimum
restoration that restorative justice ideally hopes
to achieve. In this paper, I will endeavor to show
that retribution, especially a specific
sub-category of retribution: institutionalized
revenge, are not antit...

of these fish has led to the extinction of certain
species in some areas, but the attempt to preserve
our valued fisheries has resulted in extensive
