Émile Durkheim
- Durkheim identifies four different types of suicide which are egoistic suicide, altruistic suicide, anomic suicide and fatalistic suicide.
- Rather than focusing efforts to minimize suicide on individuals, he claimed that collective public undertakings to make protective structural changes are a more effective channel for safeguarding individual well-being.
- Suicides happened when members of a group or social category are subjected to tremendous emotional and physical coercion, leaving little hope for a future free of pain.
- Durkheim was not interested in the subjective assessments made by suicide relatives for why they chose suicide, but rather considered suicide, like alcoholism or violence, as a symptom of societal breakdown.
Society
- Suicide rates have long been thought to be related to cultural, social, political, and economic variables.
- Suicide outcome is enhanced by the loss of necessary social supports.
- There are large differences in suicide rates across race, sex, age, and ethnicity.
