Summary/Abstract: In this paper author analyzes manifestations, consequences and causes of war rapes comparing them with reace rapes, problems of appropriate approach and aid to victims of war rapes as well as legal problems regarding incrimination and collec¬tion of evidences for them. The analysis is based on data about war rapes committed during Second World War, in Korea, Vietnam and Kuwait war as well as in war on the territory of former Yugoslavia. Author reviews theoretical explanations of both rape in general and war rape. Author, accepting both radical criminology and feminist eyplanation of rape, points out that war rape is a result of double power conflict.
