DOMESTIC VIOLENCE IN INTERNATIONAL LAW AND CRIMINAL PROCEDURAL ASPECTS OF THIS VIOLENCE IN BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA

Summary/Abstract: Domestic violence, as a specific social phenomenon, a criminological phenomenon, but also a difficult form of violence, has only recently attracted the attention of the international community, but also of legislators in some countries, as well as the attention of competent state bodies, professionals and the public in general. This is understandable because these are specific, often perfidious, more or less covert forms of physical, psychological, economic, sexual or similar violence between close relatives or persons in a partnership. Nevertheless, it is only at the beginning of this century in Bosnia and Herzegovina that organized social efforts are made to prevent and suppress these forms of illegal, illicit, prohibited behavior between members of the same family or family community, regardless of whether the relationship is based on blood or adoptive relationship. Violence in the family or family community in Bosnia and Herzegovina is regulated by family laws, criminal laws and laws on protection from domestic violence. These legal solutions define the concept, content and characteristics, as well as the forms and types of manifestations of violence in the family or family community, as well as the system of preventive and repressive (criminal and misdemeanor) measures for its prevention and suppression. These provisions are based on a number of relevant international documents.
