Abstract

Throughout the years, women have suffered innumerable amounts of violence; unfortunately, these abuses still happen. With that said, this study analyzes the modern understanding of ‘gender’ – a concept formulated by social science academics in order to explain how cultural differences influences women and men. Moreover, this paper explores how cultural differences between both sexes are manifested, and investigates gender discrimination and inequality that generate violence towards women. In addition, this research presents mediation as an appropriate and adequate means for conflict resolution as it seeks party dialogue, which is essential in cases of domestic conflicts.
