FEMICIDES IN THE REPUBLIC OF NORTH MACEDONIA IN THE PERIOD FROM 2017 TO 2021

Abstract

Femicide, as one of the most common reasons for premature death of women on global scale. In most cases it is an act done by people who had close relationship to the victim, spouse or family members.With the help of the gathered statistics during the period of 2017-2022, we will see the dynamics of the movement of this criminality, the motive behind it, the relations between the victim and offender, their age, method of the murder etc.
How big and important influence has the media about our way of thinking. Femicide is still unrecognized as a separate criminal act in our Criminal code, although from my viewpoint the priority problem is not the legislative, which by the way in the last few years has been synchronizing with the International Standards, the main problem that we are facing is the implantation which is not infused by the ruling establishment.
