Durkheim’s Sociological Analysis of Suicide

摘要

Thiseffort will suggest that Durkheim argued that suicide is a function of thelevels of Social Integration into the Conscience Collective of the social group. Consistentwith his hypothesis, Durkheim identified four forms of suicide and theirrelated levels (high/low) of social integration affecting the personal act ofsuicide. Lastly,this effort is not a traditional research project, as was mentioned above;rather is reevaluation of a classical sociological theory.
