El suicidio es un estudio en la sociología moderna que explora las causas sociales detrás del acto de quitarse la vida. Durkheim desafía la noción de que el suicidio es simplemente un problema individual, revelando cómo factores como la integración social y la regulación moral influyen en las tasas de suicidio.

Sociologist Émile Durkheim's 1897 work On Suicide is a powerful evidence-based study of why people take their own lives. In the late 19th century it was generally accepted that each suicide was an individual phenomenon, caused by such personal factors as grief, loss, and financial problems. But Durkheim felt there were patterns in suicide rates, and believed that a more likely cause of suicide lay in the individual's relationship to society.
