Abstract

This paper will address domestic violence and criminal responsibility, as it is a widespread and ongoing problem that affects millions of families worldwide. The consequences of this violence can be devastating, with farreaching effects on physical and mental health, as well as social and economic consequences for women and their families. The purpose of this paper is to research domestic violence and criminal responsibility as one of the most negative phenomena of our society, presenting a broad overview of this social phenomenon and to sensitise public opinion and responsible institutions to the issue of violence against women and domestic violence and to improve their capacity to respond effectively to such violence by fostering a victim-centred approach while holding perpetrators accountable and stopping the cycle of impunity. This paper collects existing data on the dimension of domestic violence and criminal responsibility and reviews the available literature on the consequences of abuse. It also explores the relationship between violence and other pressing issues, such as patriarchal attitudes and gender inequality, the lack of legal protections and services for survivors, and a culture of impunity for perpetrators.
