Abstract

This paper aims at establishing a correlation between the variables of transition and family violence in B&H. What are the characteristics of the transition period affecting retraditionalization and repatriarchalization of the B&H society? What are the characteristics of the B&H family and what affects retraditionalization? How does the transition period affect the B&H family and violence against women? The thesis I wish to establish is that the B&H society is deeply patriarchal and that the transition period is connected to family violence against women.
