 Restitution is neither necessary nor sufficient for reparations even when the thing to be restored to its proper owner was stolen. If A steals a bicycle from B, B has a right to reparations and consequently to restitution if A has the bicycle; reparations must give satisfaction, and A’s satisfaction may depend on her getting back the very thing that was stolen from her. But she may have lost more than the bicycle as a direct result of its theft and her right to reparations requires satisfaction for that further loss. Consequently, restitution is not always sufficient for reparations. On the other hand, the bicycle may have been destroyed or loss after its theft, making restitution but not reparations impossible. Consequently, restitution is not necessary for reparations.
