The authors basing their opinion on the data of sociological surveys of the population concluded that in both countries the statistics does not reflect the extent of this phenomenon; the opinion of the population on this issue is ambiguous, a significant part of society admits violent behavior in the family. The measures of the state impact on the problem have been analyzed. It is established that in both states long-term action programs have been adopted to protect the interests and rights of women. At the same time, the study showed that in the fight against family violence, the potentials of public organizations, the media and other social institutions were not fully utilized. The need to combine efforts of the state and society in strengthening the institution of the family is underlined.
