Socioekonomska nesigurnost - determinirajući faktor u procesu rehabilitacije žrtava nasilja
Socioeconomic Uncertainty - Determining Factor in the Rehabilitation of Victims of Violence

Summary/Abstract: The BH society in last few decades is continuously facing with complex historical, political, economical, and social circumstances that affect the most vulnerable categories of the population. Safety of women in the family, in spite of social progress, is often put under the question. They are often traumatized and subjected to violence by their closest family members: fathers, husbands, brothers or other family members. Economic instability and unemployment are especially affecting the status of women and children in the family and is often the cause of their victimization and further rehabilitation. The fact is that the social welfare system, despite positive legislative changes, it is not powerful enough to provide adequate assistance and support to victims of violence, what makes the problem more complex. This paper presents research whose main question is how the women themselves, due to the lack of security within the system, are willing to take the initiative in order to gain economic independence. This is often one of the key factors on which depends a complex process of rehabilitation of women (and children) traumatized by domestic violence.
