This article is an attempt to present the phenomenon of gender-based violence (violencia de género) in Spanish society. The author describes its presence in three areas – everyday life, legislation, and contemporary drama. An important turning point is the year 2004, when the Act on Integral Measures for the Protection against Gender Violence was adopted (Ley Organica 1/2004, de 28 de diciembre, de Medidas de Protección Integral contra la Violencia de Género), thanks to which women have gained special legal protection. Furthermore, additional regulations were introduced to raise the effectiveness of the fight against macho cultural stereotypes. An element of this struggle are also three dramatic works written by contemporary authors – Angélica Liddell, Itziar Pascual and Antonio Morcillo López – which, through a different approach to the problem, reveal a multitude of its aspects as well as diverse creative models adopted by the playwrights.
