La efectividad de la reparación integral a la víctima en las contravenciones de violencia contra la mujer o miembros del núcleo familiar

Abstract

The present graduation project is focused on analysing the effectiveness of comprehensive reparation for victims of violence against women or family members typified in Ecuadorian criminal legislation with the entry into force of the Código Orgánico Integral Penal de 2019 published in the Official Register 180 on 10 February 2014. Due to the fact that in recent years, despite the regulatory development, there has been an increase in the rates of violence against women or gender violence. Chapter I defines violence against women or members of the nuclear family, identifying its classification into crimes and offences. Chapter II analyses the mechanisms of integral reparation applicable to criminal offences and specifically to cases of contraventions of violence against women or family members under study. Finally, Chapter III analyses the effectiveness of comprehensive reparation through the analysis of surveys carried with victims of the offence defined in Art. 159 of the Código Orgánico Integral Penal. This leads to the conclusion that despite the fact that more legislation has been passed at national and international level to eliminate and eradicate domestic violence and to provide comprehensive reparation for the harm committed, for various reasons it has not been possible for the victim to return to her previous state and to be able to continue with her life project.
