English term or phrase: common justice
Dear all,

In "Equal pay is common justice," Can we translate "common justice" as عدالة اجتماعية or does it have a specific meaning?

Thanks a lot.

Common Justice offers an alternative to the traditional court process for youth charged with felonies such as assault, robbery, and burglary. Project staff bring together people immediately affected by a crime to acknowledge the harm done, address the needs of the harmed party, and agree on sanctions other than incarceration to hold the responsible party accountable.

Explanation:
Common Justice offers an alternative to the traditional court process for youth charged with felonies such as assault, robbery, and burglary. Project staff bring together people immediately affected by a crime to acknowledge the harm done, address the needs of the harmed party, and agree on sanctions other than incarceration to hold the responsible party accountable. The project, based in Brooklyn, New York, seeks to repair harm, break cycles of violence, and decrease the system’s heavy reliance on incarceration.

Modeling Participatory Justice

Common Justice uses the principles of participatory justice—often called restorative justice—which has been shown to meet the needs of victims, reduce recidivism, and improve satisfaction with the justice system.

•Creating Accountability: The project gives responsible parties an opportunity to meet face-to-face with harmed parties, recognize the harm committed, and agree on how it should be addressed. Afterward, project staff monitor responsible parties as they complete sanctions resulting from the process, which may include financial restitution, community service, and/or educational programming. If the sanction agreement is fulfilled, responsible parties are not sent to jail or prison.

•Repairing Individual Harm: Common Justice offers harmed individuals a process that focuses on their needs and asks them to participate in determining the case outcome. Staff connect harmed parties with services, such as job training, educational courses, and counseling, to address immediate and long-term needs.

•Healing Communities: For cases in which incarceration does not serve the public interest, Common Justice provides a safe and effective alternative sanction that seeks to repair rather than sever communal ties in the aftermath of serious crime. By encouraging dialogue and providing needed services, the project aims to address the underlying causes of violence and begin a long-term process of transformation for individuals and communities.
