VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN IN THE REPUBLIC OF YEMEN

Summary/Abstract: The issue of violence against women in the Yemen Republic is treated. Violence in the family is difficult to be established and studied, as its acts remain hidden in the closed family. Using anthropological and sociological methods it is possible to differentiate two forms of violence against women: home and social violence. Direct and indirect causes of violence are presented in details. Indirect causes of violence refer to tribal structure, social and family interrelations and traditional socialization. Direct causes of violence include family quarrels, early marriages, family poverty and illiteracy. Violence against women reflect on their personality development and also on children's development.
