Abstract

This paper problematizes relationships within the so-called "triangle": citizens' needs, domestic violence, model of police work in the community. Research practice based on foreign experiences, empirical findings, and theoretical concepts specifically analyzes the scope and limitations of police work in responding to domestic violence. The approach is directed towards the "victim concept", in accordance with the most significant international and domestic legal solutions in the field of combating gender-based violence. In Serbia, after the adoption of the Law on the Prevention of Domestic Violence, and according to the reports on the results of its implementation in the period from 2017 to 2022, it is necessary to harmonize judicial practice and procedures, as well as to harmonize the positions of the courts in defining the criminal policy in relation to this social phenomenon. According to the recommendations of international institutions, it is necessary to intensify activities on research and monitoring of domestic violence in Serbia. Data collection is still carried out partially and sporadically, without a clear strategy, systematic and unique approach.
