Domestic crimes constitute a significant category of offenses that occur within family or close interpersonal relationships and pose serious challenges for criminal law theory and practice. This thesis examines the legal nature of domestic crimes through an analysis of their objective and subjective elements. The objective perspective focuses on the external manifestation of criminal behavior, including actions or omissions, harmful consequences, causal links, and the circumstances under which such crimes are committed. The subjective perspective explores the internal mental attitude of the offender, emphasizing guilt, intent, motive, and purpose. The study highlights the interdependence of these elements in accurately identifying and qualifying domestic crimes. The findings suggest that a comprehensive approach, integrating both objective and subjective perspectives, is essential for fair legal qualification, effective prevention strategies, and the protection of victims’ rights.
