Criminological studies on domestic violence highlight the complex, multifaceted causes rooted in interwoven social, cultural, economic, and psychological factors. Scholars argue that domestic violence is a complex outcome of long-standing socio-cultural and economic conditions, making simple explanations insufficient. In Uzbekistan, patriarchal norms and cultural expectations place women in subservient roles within the family, reinforcing gendered social roles and power dynamics. Economic stressors such as poverty and unemployment also exacerbate family tensions, increasing the likelihood of violence. Psychological factors, including aggression and mental health issues, often lead to impulsive acts of violence.
