ABSTRACT
The Council of Europe
Convention on 11 May 2011 addresses the economic violence as one kind of
violence a woman may face when dealing with income from work, access to the
labor market, establishment of enterprises, access to entrepreneurial
activities and governance bodies. The paper focuses on four typical situations of
economic violence and subsequent risks for the woman and society and economy. Economy law may
propose the use of instruments to prevent or fight economic violence: from tax
incentives, to women’s enterprise incentives; from direct finance, to loans at
discounted rates; from gender quotas to incentives to build educational and
professional skills dedicated to women in order to fill the gap and even the
playing field. Some of them have
been already used successfully, others not so, but their common element is that
there is a better and specific educational and training need for women to
prevent economic violence. The paper will discuss data with respect to certain
instruments within the Italian legal framework.
The paper will address needs for better and specific
education and training before introducing new economy law measures in the Italian legal framework,
pursuant in some cases to EU legislation.
