Domestic Violence (KDRT) is a form of crime in the domestic sphere; the data on domestic violence is increasingly worrying and tends to be out of control. Based on the Records of Violence against Women (CATAHU) in 2019; there were 431,471 cases of violence against women and it has been escalated up to 693% since 2008 which was only 54,425 cases. The effort to overcome and handle domestic violence is carried out by formulating various kinds of laws and regulations, creating structural and non-structural institutions that handle domestic violence cases, but in reality acts of violence continue to increase. In West Sumatra, Minangkabau customary law is prevailed as a law that is admited by the constitution. In fact domestic violence in Minangkabau society is a common problem. In handling and overcoming domestic violence, positive law and Minangkabau customary law have their own ways. From the data of national statistics agency of indoensia (BPS) in 2019, West Sumatra was not classified as the 10 highest occurrences of domestic violence in Indonesia. Based on this phenomenon, it is very interesting to study and to be compared of the effort to overcome domestic violence based on the concepts of Positive Law and Minangkabau Customary Law. This study uses a normative approach, namely examining library materials or secondary data consisting of primary legal materials and tertiary legal materials. The results of Positive Law research in overcoming domestic violence focus on handling by applying the law with maximum punishment (repressive), by providing education to the community that is directed and well programmed (preventive), even if domestic violence occurs then efforts are made (pre-emptive) so that the impact or the consequences are not significant. While Minangkabau customary law is more of a preventive effort, namely before the occurrence of domestic violence and the application of Minangkabau customary law is carried out in stages based on the proverb Bajanjang Naik Batanggo Turun.

The 2016 annual press release (Catahu) released that there were 321,752 of violence cases. The largest type of violence against women was violence in the personal sector. Violence in the form of rape was 72% (2,399 of cases), violence in the form of obscenity was 18% (601 of cases), and sexual abuse was 5% (166 of cases). The majority of personal violence victims (domestic / household) were women. The forms of domestic violence included physical violence, psychological violence, sexual violence and neglect of the household; while the main factor was the lack of communication and disharmony among family members. The impact in the short term was usually like a physical injury, disability, pregnancy, loss of work, and so forth; while the long-term effects were psychological disorders (psychiatric), loss of confidence, fend for oneself, trauma and appearance of fear to depression. The handling of domestic violence is one of the focuses of social workers to play a role in helping / assisting the recovery of victims. The social worker should be able to convince the victims to dare to express their problems, to give a sense of security, and comfort. Social workers in helping victims of domestic violence should have knowledge and alignment to the victims that the slightest violence is a form of crime against humanity. Victims of domestic violence must immediately obtain the protection, security assurance and social assistance. The efforts which can be done by social workers are counseling and family counseling.

In a number of countries, domestic violence is represented as a governable phenomenon that is amenable to policy interventions. Over the past 40 years in the Netherlands, however, this approach has not resulted in a reduction of domestic violence. Yet new policy strategies continue to be designed to improve existing interventions. In this article, we focus on a Dutch policy measure that aims to detect early signals of violence and abuse. We argue that this strategy, by approaching domestic violence as a technical problem, fails to take into account structural and symbolic violence. As a consequence, the impact of domestic violence policies on women, particularly poor women, and especially women with a migration background, is to intensify their difficulties. Moreover, these policies deploy a technology that shapes the subjectivity of professionals engaged in protection practices, while maintaining the status quo of inequality and violence against women. The connection between these two flaws of domestic violence policies leads us to claim that the current approach is constituted as a regime of deficiency.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to document the impact of participation in microfinance programs on domestic violence against women. Design/methodology/approach This paper uses the survey data from 69 villages in Bangladesh and the instrumental variable approach to estimate the effect of participation in microcredit programs on domestic violence. Findings The results show that women’s participation in microcredit programs does not reduce domestic violence. However, this result is possible only when the authors do not distinguish between female borrowers who have control over credit and those who do not have control over credit. Classifying female borrowers into these two categories can significantly change the results. The authors report significantly lower physical violence against those female who have control over credit. In case of psychological violence, the authors report no significant impact of control over microcredit. Originality/value The novelty of the paper lies in distinguishing between physical and psychological violence.

AbstractNow that it has been in operation for 20 years, it is necessary to reflect on the impact the South African Domestic Violence Act has had on women's lives. This article analyses this key legislation and the police's duty to ensure its proper implementation. It focuses on the reports of the Independent Complaints Directorate and Civilian Secretariat of Police, the bodies responsible for measuring police compliance with the act. The reports identify serious transgressions, highlighting the police's perception that domestic violence is a private affair with which it should not interfere. This perception plays a particularly subtle and destructive role in legitimizing, supporting and permitting violence against women. In focusing on key court decisions in which the state (police) was held financially accountable for the failure to protect women against violence, the author highlights the importance of challenging the social and legal understanding of women's experiences with violence in promoting a system that takes account of those experiences.
