title: The injustice of nonjudicial remedies to address childhood violence.
abstract: The hypothesis that nonjudicial remedies such as mediation, negotiation, and "fair fighting" are effective tools for use in dealing with childhood violence has enjoyed some speculation in recent years. This work evaluates the hypothesis that such methods are unjust to the victims of such violence and that these methods must be abandoned in favor of appropriate punishment for aggressors.
