The Suspicious Eye
Your Darling Devil
Emile Durkheim classified different types of suicides on the basis of different types of relationship between the actor and his society.
(1) Egoistic suicide:
According to Durkheim, when a man becomes socially isolated or feels that he has no place in the society he destroys himself. Those who lack emotion and isolate themselves
(2) Altruistic suicide:
This type of suicide occurs when individuals and the group are too close and intimate. Altruistic suicide is when you give your life for another or die for a cause or society you believe in. This is the opposite of Egoistic suicide. These people will die for the common good, as their personal needs do not seem important compared to the group as a whole. An example would be military service, where a soldier is expected to die for his/her country; or where a mother pushes her child, who is in front of a moving car, away while hurting herself in the process.
(3) Anomic suicide:
This type of suicide is due to certain breakdown of social equilibrium, such as, suicide after bankruptcy or after winning a lottery. In other words, having a lack of meaning with one's life
(4) Fatalistic suicide:
This type of suicide is due to overregulation in society. A good example of this would be a man who kills himself before the police take him to jail. Jail might be seen as oppressive and would prohibit the man from fulfilling his dreams.
