A historical perspective will also be offered, examining the key reforms that have shaped the institution from the Rocco Code to the present day. The second chapter focuses on the legislative developments concerning self-defense within the home, analyzing the most significant reforms and the legal debates that followed.

Il presente elaborato si propone di svolgere un’analisi dell’istituto della legittima difesa nella sua evoluzione storica e normativa, trovando un riscontro concreto nella sua applicazione in ambito sociale, in relazione al fenomeno della violenza domestica. Il primo capitolo offre un’analisi dell’istituto della legittima difesa sotto il profilo dei principi generali e fondanti che ne costituiscono la base, così come disciplinato originariamente dall’art. 52 del codice penale. L’analisi comprenderà anche un approfondimento storico, prendendo in considerazione le principali riforme che hanno interessato l’istituto, dal Codice Rocco fino ai giorni nostri. Il secondo capitolo si concentrerà sull’evoluzione normativa della legittima difesa domiciliare, analizzando le modifiche legislative più rilevanti e il dibattito giuridico che ne è scaturito. Infine, il terzo e ultimo capitolo offrirà un approfondimento sull’applicazione concreta dell’istituto nel contesto della violenza di genere, proponendo un’analisi della giurisprudenza più significativa in materia, con particolare riferimento alle pronunce della Corte di Cassazione, e un confronto con i principali contributi dottrinali sul tema.
