Summary/Abstract: Violence is one of the most disturbing phenomena in the modern world, it is a mechanism regulating relations between people in different groups, institutions, environments and social systems. It has been a serious problem for many years social and one of the basic threats for both the family and individual its members. The use of violence is a fairly common phenomenon and exists in many societies. It always appears where there are uneven relations. Conducted by various statistics institutions do not fully reflect the magnitude of this problem. Victims often do not report a crime without seeing the possibility of solving it, for fear, for fear of stigmatizing a society in which myths about the subject still exist violence. The relevant knowledge of society on the subject is therefore important the problem of violence that will cause moral condemnation of its perpetrators. The paper presents the definition of domestic violence and the definition of the family itself presented in the literature on the subject. I also tried to present the factors conducive to the occurrence of domestic violence.
