Research on poverty indicate that women are more at risk to poverty . Women far different experience poverty than men. Higher risk of poverty among women is the result of the unequal status of women in the labor market, lower wages and less opportunities for improvement in career. Greater responsibility of women in relation to obligations regarding care of children and adults who are unable to care for themselves, exposing women to greater risk of poverty . Depending on the appearance of women than men, creating an ideological framework that can increase the chances of poverty among women. This paper aims to highlight the socio -cultural context of the problem of poverty from a gender point of view. To this end, this paper will focus on the deeply rooted stereotypes and prejudices in relation to the division of labor by gender, as one of the key factors contributing to women are at greater risk of impoverishment.

Poverty is a historical and class-conditioned social phenomenon. The people who are in the condition of poverty have limited resources (material, cultural, social, etc.). The long-term poverty measurements by applying the relative and subjective method have enabled identification of the basic profiles of poverty in the Republic of Macedonia. The condition of poverty directly affects the following: the material status, the social status, the bio-mental condition and the culture of living and behaviour of the people who are in that condition. The consequences of the condition of poverty are numerous; we will address the housing, nutrition, health condition, family relations, education, as well as social communication. The purpose of this work is to examine, describe and explain the consequences of the condition of poverty with the three basic groups of poor families: traditionally poor, newly impoverished households and chronically poor families by using the data from the qualitative measurements. The poor people have had difficulties adjusting to the newly emerged situation in the Republic of Macedonia. The family members have mostly tried to escape the newly emerged situation in the grey economy. Reproduction of the second generation of poor families is evident. The generalizations referred to regarding the researched problem arise from the qualitative research conducted on a sample of 60 families which were followed throughout a ten-year period.
Violence against women, including sexual violence, is one of the most serious forms of violation of human rights -the right to life, the right to physical and mental integrity, the right of equal protection and the right to protection from all forms of discrimination. Following the preliminary knowledge of the frequentness of sexual violence in marriage and intimate relationships, which because of its sensitive nature is rarely reported and even harder to prove, the purpose of this work is, through a discursive analysis of the social context and structures in which it manifests itself, to penetrate deep into the roots of this form of violence, which can not be treated as a private issue of intimate partners. Also, through the analysis of the legislation in the Republic of Macedonia, as well as the existing mechanisms and the concrete measures taken, this work should also show what has been done and what needs to be done in terms of dealing with this form of gender-based violence.
