CONCEPTUL CRIMINOLOGIC DE VIOLENŢĂ ÎN FAMILIE
THE CRIMINOLOGICAL CONCEPT OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE

Summary/Abstract: Domestic violence is a social problem of contemporary communities, including the Republic of Moldova, because it has not yet found effective preventive solutions and there is no consensus on the coherent definition of domestic violence, especially when it comes to the criminological side of this phenomenon. Therefore, following the research of the specialized literature and various normative acts, we can define the crime of domestic violence as a negative social-legal phenomenon, with mass character, variable from a historical point of view, which consists of all illegal acts (crimes and misdemeanors) committed intentionally against family members, as a rule, for the purpose of controlling and dominating them which causes physical, psychological or material damage, committed in a certain territory, in a certain period of time characterized by quantitative indices ( level and dynamics) and qualitative (structure and character).
