Summary/Abstract: The effectiveness of the legislative framework in the field of domestic violence has always been a topic of interest to the people of our country. Over time, there have been several campaigns to raise public awareness of the seriousness of this phenomenon but following the statistics we note that the existing legislative measures are insufficient to combat this phenomenon, hence the necessity to adopt legislative strategies to protect the victim and ensure the immediate sanctioning of any act of violence committed in the family. The investigative approach is represented by a quantitative research, a sociological questionnaire was applied to a number of 60 subjects from Caraş-Severin County. The aim of the research was to identify the perception of the population regarding the involvement of the authorities in combating and preventing domestic violence.
