This edited collection explores the concept of Generative Justice and how it might help us reimagine conventional responses to crime and state punishment. With case studies from the Global North and South, it offers insights into how, within different cultural contexts, justice-involved people find solidarity, belonging, and purpose.

The book showcases exciting and innovative projects and communities in which unlikely solidarities have been forged among diverse people. These connections are made through creative practices, education, food, horticulture, and shared experiences of reentry, recovery, and desistance. By exploring the common features and qualities of these generative places, Generative Justice sets out an agenda for future research and activism.
