Abstract EN

The phenomenon of family violence is a social and ethical problem that primarily affects the society and is affected by it vice versa.

Therefore, its study has become a necessity in view of the various social and economic circumstances, which contribute to the reproduction of such phenomena that fall within the list of irregular deeds.

Family violence in Arab and Islamic societies differ significantly from Western societies due to religious and social considerations.

Despite the remarkable interest in studying and understanding this phenomenon, our societies have not received sufficient and appropriate attention by the decision-makers and statesmen, despite its rapid spread, so many of its aspects remained obscure, complicated and inaccurate.

Therefore, it is important to shed light on the most important reasons for choosing this study to highlight the forms of family violence prevailing in the Algerian society, which is practiced against women and children by virtue of the hierarchies of building power within this type of communities characterized by different patterns and levels, which takes a relatively different character in its social and cultural construction.

As well as trying to identify the reasons behind the emergence of such phenomenon in addition to the most significant effects and consequences on both individual and society, where we finally concluded to suggest some mechanisms as solutions to this phenomenon.

The study reached the necessity and the need to combine and unify efforts between individuals and related institutions through working in accordance with educational and preventive mechanisms and strategies concerned with the issue of family violence, as well as working on the necessary legislation and activating the role of psychological and educational counselors by working to train the family on how to deal with violence problems by relying on dissemination of the necessary culture about marital life to reduce the spread of this phenomenon.
