Among the different forms of violence against women, domestic violence is the one that reaches higher valuations, so much World wide as in our environment. Nevertheless, to determine what are these valuations and, therefore, to arbitrate the measurements and necessary resources is not an easy task. For it we have considered necessary to dedicate this work to the analysis the difficulties to quantify this problem. We analysed data of surveys and registrations from Spain and from different countries. These data permit in the first place, to conclude with plenty of clarity that this form of violence, as well as its more irreversible fatal consequence, the femicide, is not exclusive of any country or joint of countries with some characteristics. Nevertheless, the concrete magnitude and, therefore, the similarities and differences that can have between countries and the evolution of this problem are a lot more difficult themes to quantify. We analysed and discuss these results.
