Özet:

In addition to the existence of many factors affecting the emergence of violence against women, the main source of violence is the social gender inequality, the asymmetric power relationship between women and men arising from the patherical social structure. Violence against women is known as a means of ensuring the continuation of the paternal order and of preserving the power imbalance that has lasted for centuries. The legitimate recognition of violence, which is a fundamental human rights infringement, causes an increase in these actions, creates a major obstacle to finding a solution and makes it even more difficult to develop a sense of equality and a non-violent approach in society. This study was carried out with the aim of collecting the information obtained from the studies on the subject to identify, explain and study the basic concepts of violence against women related to gender inequality that varies over time and between communities.
