ABSTRACT: Violence against women or members of the
family is an act that affects society in every corner of the world,
because it destroys the family in many ways, such as morally,
physically, psychologically, and even intellectually, as in the
case of children or adolescents who are underachieving at
school, since they have to endure different types of violence
from the aggressor. Considering the importance of the family
in society since it is on the family that the healthy and orderly
growth of a society depends. This social problem has a lot to do
with how, throughout history, there has been a misconception
on the part of men that it is they who are superior and that it is
women who must obey and be subdued, as it is they who impose
authority on women in a violent manner that reaches the point
of threatening their integrity and that of their whole family.
KEYWORDS: Violence against women, victim, crime, domestic
violence, sexual violence.
