Abstract

The position of women in social life turned out to be out of alignment with men even though efforts in that direction had been long and continued. The strength of social, cultural and institutional factors that place women lower than men is the main cause of problems of violence and abuse. The formation of male dominance over women is viewed from the theory of nature and culture. In the process of transformation from nature to culture conquest often occurs. Men as culture have the authority to conquer and impose the will on women (nature). Violent crime is essentially a manifestation of human behavior. Actions against someone, especially women, which results in physical, sexual, psychological misery or suffering, and can also neglect the household, including threats to commit acts, coercion or deprivation of liberty against the law. the research questions can be formulated, namely, what are the factors that lead to violence and harassment, how the form of legal protection, and what obstacles are faced in an effort to provide legal protection for women who are victims.
