Abstract
For the restorative justice theorist, few views are as misguided as the perspective that restorative justice is an appropriate response to minor crimes, while major ones such as terrorism require a purely punitive response, or even a declaration of war to defend freedom against its enemies. Lode Walgrave's (2015) analysis in 'Domestic terrorism: a challenge for restorative justice' draws little dissent from this commentator; Walgrave (2008) applies his convincing account of why 'respect, solidarity and active responsibility' are worthy pillars of a restorative society. In this contribution he gives form to these pillars as a response to a troubling threat to freedom.
