Abstract

Suicide in young people, new phenomenon in Occident, coincides with the actual family crisis. Based on the anomy concept, the author shows that youth symbolically ended in the family institution, conducting "domestic society" to play an anti-anomic role, identified by Durkheim, and proved by a series of interviews with relatives of young who has committed suicide. It is depicted that in plenty of adolescents, lost in the darkness of their adolescence, grows an aversion to themselves which leads them to death. © 2007 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
