Aim: The situation of victims of domestic violence and partner abuse becomes even more serious in crisis situations. There have been and are ongoing conflicts in the world, which have been scrutinised by economists, sociologists, criminologists, health professionals and lawyers alike in recent years. The latest related research worldwide provides a lot of important new information that can help prepare for the problem and provide professionally competent answers. Methodology: A selection of research conducted in different parts of the world. Summary reports were prepared to shed light on similarities and differences. Findings: It is clear from the processed literature that the individual forms of violence are connected in crisis situations and pose an even greater danger. Violence at the macro level, such as war, also increases violent conflict at the micro level. The crises caused by the fear of COVID, the lockdown, war conflicts, hunger, and the climate disaster spill over into family homes and make the victims of domestic violence and partner abuse even more vulnerable. Most of the processed materials analyse research born after COVID. The COVID--19 epidemic also provided many lessons regarding the management and prevention of the economic effects of future natural disasters and the associated increased domestic violence. Value: Analyses point to relationships that need further research and evaluation. In the future, macro- and micro-level violence research must be continued, common global results must be aggregated, and complex, global solutions must be developed. International organisations must continue to collect data and provide clear guidelines to public bodies and social organisations for the joint management of macro- and micro-level problems.

At the end of the 19th century and in the first half of the 20th century, criminal justice policy was transformed by criminological thinking in Hungary. Enormous changes took place during this period. As Jenő Balogh put it, these did not simply involve the publication of revolutionary works in criminal law, but also the emergence of new branches of science including criminology. Without criminology, there can be no progress in criminal law: 'In the chapters with great practical importance in terms of dogmatics, one must use the useful new ideas and latest achievements of the reform directions.'1 Certain criminological terms have become immanent parts of criminal law. It was under the influence of the new ideas that new institutions appeared within the scope of the Penal Code. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
