Women – Victims of violence in public sphere

Journal Title: Sociology and Social Work Review - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 0

Abstract

The violence against women on the streets has always been a touchy subject for the present society as it emphasizes the lack of policies to deal with it. In the less civilized countries violence against women on the streets is widespread and the local services lack the programs to prevent and, more importantly, to protect women against such abuse. Street harassment is irritating and annoying. In some cases it can also be traumatizing and the feeling of helplessness and frailty is present. Whether this type of harassment is avoided and overlooked it might well be taken to a forward level i.e. more severe crimes such as stalking, rape, violent aggressions and even murder. The present article is based on a recent research on the topic.
