Abstract

Suicide is a universal and specific behavior of human beings which has been present throughout the history of mankind. However, throughout the ages social considerations about it have changed: the acceptance or punishment (and even how to carry out this punishment). These changes have relied upon the influence of different cultural factors. In this article, we review how the prevailing paradigms induced changes in the conceptualization of suicide.
