"Through an ethnohistorical chronicling of the emotionally-laden treatment of selected
suicide media-events, this book offers a neo-Durkheimian account of suicide, addressing
its social-moral threat and the ensuing need to gloss over its unsettling incomprehensibility.
An analysis of the social dramas, cultural performances, and suicide talk aired in
the Israeli public sphere, it suggests that such public glossing practices atone for
and bring about the symbolic rectification of the socially detrimental effects of
suicide. Drawing on Durkheim's thought on the social significance of suicide and the
sacred cohesive power of society's self-representations through rituals and commemorations,
the authors revamp the contemporary pertinence of these cultural devices, showing
how, in the process of reconstituting and redressing the disrupted order, suicide
talk constitutes a revival mechanism of communal 'life giving'. A rekindling of the
Durkheimian approach to suicide that examines how society deals with suicide's shattering
of normative we-feelings, Suicide Social Dramas: Moral Breakdowns in the Israeli Public
Sphere will appeal to scholars and students of sociology and anthropology with interests
in social theory, Israel studies, suicide studies, and the interpretation of societal
and cultural processes"
