Sinopse

Introduction For more than a century, the sociological study of suicide is due to Durkheim's classic Suicide. Essentially there are two central principles: that the structure of suicide rates in a society is a function of the structure of social relations and that vary in terms of integration and/or regulation. Suicide occurs predominantly among the group with the highest levels of social, political and religious solidarity. However, when Durkheim's theory is extended, and extension in the micro level is integrated. When individuals do not feel integrated into society, they can commit selfish suicide. In the ultimate analysis, higher levels of suicide in modern societies would reach equilibrium due to the stabilizing forces related to mutual interdependence and social mobility. Objective: This study aimed to characterize the studies produced in the last 5 years that address suicide and its main causes. Methodology: a systematic review that followed the reporting guidelines of PRISMA methodology to obtain relevant to the subject data was performed. The review was based on relevant articles published in three databases (SCOPUS, Science Direct and Web of Science). The keywords user were Suicide, Sociology and Military. The eligibility criteria of the articles contemplated only articles published and peer reviewed, published from 2014 to 2019, and written in English. Results and Discussion: 149 articles were selected, of which 8 studies were included, after applying the date criteria (period 2014 to 2019); document type criteria (only research articles) and the language criteria (articles in English). Laboring suicide, disclosed ways of investigation for the prevention, taking into account two basic types: suicide and self-inflicted injury. Due to the nature of the results, it was well established that suicide is a multi-causal phenomenon and may be associated with determinants of the most varied shades. The possibilities for the motivation to commit the suicide proposed by the authors, give a good measure of this diversity. Conclusion: It is worth mentioning that little change has occurred in existing social theories, however, society is evolving, is the interpersonal mechanism at work or family. Such relationships between friends, the influences of mourning, require special attention.
