Abstract:
As a major cause of violence, war has affected the growth and development of societies, which is important for women's equal rights, and has led women as the main and defenseless victims of societies to destruction, isolation and discrimination. As a result of the direct or indirect consequences of wars, women are exposed to discriminatory and inhumane factors during armed conflict and violent conflict around the world .One of the acute international problems of women is the issue of systematic rape in armed conflicts, which is carried out with specific goals, which certainly the decisive and serious approach of the international community can have positive effects in preventing the occurrence of these inhumane acts. Because women are the main victims of conflict during wartime, as civilians in war zones, they are completely defenseless against attacks on their human and natural rights. Women in war-torn countries suffer the most from physical and psychological violence. Inhumane behaviors such as murder, torture, rape, slavery, sterilization and sexual violence are some of the acts of violence against women.In such a context, international institutions such as the United Nations have prioritized limited activities, but important.This article examines the international support for victimized women during the war with a descriptive-analytical approach and using qualitative data.
Machine summary:
He states that women involved in armed conflicts have always been exposed to various types of sexual violence in the form of crimes against humanity, war crimes, and genocide.
Karbasi (2017), in an article titled "Examining the Concept and Forms of Sexual Violence Against Women in Armed Conflicts," evaluated the level of vulnerability and victimization of women in war-torn countries and believes that contemporary armed conflicts have destructive effects on ordinary people, especially women, who become victims of massacres and genocide as part of the civilian population.
The Role of Women in War-Torn Societies and the Post-War Era," states that women today were not only victims of conflicts and violence but are also considered agents of change and the establishment of peace.
Delić1 and Avdibegović2 (2020), in a study titled "An Applied Approach to Helping Women Survivors of Sexual Assault in Bosnia and Herzegovina," examined the status and conditions of victimized women, the results of which show that in the post-war period, the situation of women survivors of sexual assault, along with economic and social problems, lack of job opportunities, poverty, and weak implementation of laws and policies related to gender equality, had made the situation of women more complex.
Similarly, authors such as Simmel 3, Lasswell 4, and Fromm 5 have considered the role of psychological factors such as frustration, identification, projection, fears, anxieties, and superiority to be effective in the emergence of war and violence, stating that such motives may become active under various conditions, including crises, wars, and feelings of national inferiority (Bartelson 6, 2021: 130).
