Abstract

The purpose of the present thesis is to analyze the issue of an adequate understanding of the concepts of “violation” and “rape”. The authors first focused on the etiology of these studied concepts and their location in the monuments of law that were in force in the past. A constitutive element of the historical part of the work is an interpretation of indicated terms and determination of the relationship between them. The Polish penal codes from 1932, 1969, and the current one from 1997 were subsequently analyzed, in which Polish legal thought was continued in the use of both the term “violation” and “rape” in criminal legislation’’.
