Economic Violence: An Obstacle to Financial Independence

Economic violence is a subtle form of abuse that often goes unnoticed. It manifests through the control of a partner's financial resources, with the aim of limiting their economic autonomy. This type of violence can have devastating repercussions on the life of those who endure it, reducing their ability to make independent decisions.

How to Recognize Economic Violence

Recognizing economic violence is essential to intervene and protect one's rights. Here are some signs to consider:

  • Prevention of access to or control of money.
  • Imposition of a strict budget without justification.
  • Obstruction in finding or maintaining a job.
  • Constant monitoring of personal expenses.

The Legal Implications of Economic Violence

From a legal standpoint, economic violence can be considered a form of domestic abuse. It can constitute a prosecutable offense depending on the specific circumstances and existing legislation. The law provides protective measures for victims, who can seek restraining orders or other protective actions.

"Economic violence undermines the dignity and independence of individuals and must be addressed firmly."
