Abstract

One of the current issues of criminal law in general and thus the criminal law of the Republic of Serbia in the last 20 years is the issue of domestic violence and criminal legal instruments of the state reaction to it. There are two reasons for such a high degree of topicality of this extremely negative social phenomenon. The first is contained in a high degree of its social danger not only for the family as the basic cell of society but also for the state/society as a whole. The second is the scope of its practical presence. Having in mind these two facts, and in the desire to counteract this negative social phenomenon in the RS as successfully and efficiently as possible, a number of normative and practical activities have been undertaken in the last 20 years with the aim of combating and preventing domestic violence.
