RAZVOJ PREDUZETNIŠTVA U FUNKCIJI PREVENCIJE NASILJA
DEVELOPMENT OF ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN THE FUNCTION OF VIOLENCE PREVENTION

Summary/Abstract: One of the characteristics of the market of the Western Balkans is the high rate of unemployment, especially the high rate of youth unemployment. The causes range from generally low economic activity, slow economic growth, to outdated curricula. All this leads to long-term youth unemployment, which often results in dissatisfaction, social exclusion and a bad social image of the whole family. On the other hand, numerous studies prove the connection between unemployment and violence, especially domestic violence. Men who are unemployed or lose their jobs often cause domestic violence, while women who lose their jobs become victims of domestic violence. Precisely because of this, our paper deals with the idea of encouraging and developing entrepreneurship, especially youth entrepreneurship, in order to have a preventive effect on the occurrence of domestic violence and violence in society in general through employment and self-employment. Through the work, we defined the initial hypothesis that reads "Encouraging entrepreneurship has a positive effect on the prevention of violence". Attitudes obtained from research in the student population show that focusing on policies that reduce unemployment or provide support to the unemployed through encouraging entrepreneurship can reduce violence and improve public health.
