Abstract

Theft, a prevalent property crime in society, serves as the focal point of this research. The study aims to investigate and evaluate the efforts, challenges, and potential solutions in addressing common theft crimes by employing a restorative justice approach. The author employs a sociological-legal approach as the research methodology. The findings of this research indicate that the resolution of theft-related criminal offenses through a restorative justice framework is feasible when both the offender and victim willingly participate in the process with the objective of achieving reconciliation and preventing recurrence of criminal behavior (recidivism). To address this, it is suggested that the responsibility for mediating the process should be entrusted to the offender and the victim, with a focus on safeguarding the rights and well-being of both parties. In addition, community involvement is emphasized, along with stringent oversight to ensure the effective implementation of the resolution process.
