Suicide is a complex issue that has attracted the attention of several áreas interested in discussing its causes. In Brazil little is researched on the subject, and there are still many currents that understand suicide as something isolated and individual. This dissertation consists, refuting the hegemonic currents, in a study that aims to understand suicide, analyzing it as a complex phenomenon and resulting from various determinations, but mainly as a product of capitalist sociability. Through work man becomes humanized and develops himself as being able to transform nature to meet his needs. Its capabilities are developed socially and historically, producing considerable wealth. In the capitalist mode of production, which is based on private property, this wealth as well as the means of production are appropriated by a minority, while the majority - expropriated of their production - survive exclusively from their labor power. This is the root of alienation and the production of barbarism embodied in this sociability, which runs through the material conditions of subsistence to subjective conditions, affecting all spheres of social life. In this research we seek to analyze critically the capitalist society where we evidence suicide as a phenomenon of multiple determinations with space of materialization and realization in private life. Taking into account the historical process, suicide is not only linked to the individual, because it is a phenomenon produced socially.
