    Abstract

    The question may seem dated or its answer obvious. In any case, it has a well-worn response, namely, that wrongdoing deserves punishment. For reasons that I will endeavor to make clear, I want to stay with the question ' and, ultimately, the answer. I propose, however, to consider the possibility of an alternative answer that accommodates recent interest in ideas associated with restorative justice.
