LIU Yan-wu;Department of Sociology, Wuhan University;

Abstract: According to the suicides’ intent or purpose, the paper classified the suicide action into four ideal types: egoism suicide, altruistic suicide, vengeful suicide and despairing suicide. Among of them, egoism suicide concluded suicide for escaping from responsibility, suicide for getting rid of pain, suicide for venting one’s anger. Altruistic suicide concluded suicide for martyrdom, affording responsibility and easing the burden. Vengeful suicide concluded suicide for opposing false accusation, punishment and threatening. Despairing suicide concluded suicide for value desperation, feeling desperation and surviving desperation. The social integration and social norm were highly related to the peasant’s suicide types. While the degree of social integration and social norm presents concentrated form, the suicide types distributes toward the altruistic suicide and vengeful suicide or egoism suicide and despairing suicide. If the degree of social integration and social norm presents moderate form, the suicide types will distribute toward discrete characteristics.
