Summary
The present research seeks to make a theoretical approach to the phenomenon of suicide and the increasing of its occurrence in our contemporary society. It is important to notice that some measures have already been implemented but they remain inefficient, since the occurrence of suicides grows more and more instead of decreasing In this way, the possibility of implementing public policies that answer to different social and geographical contexts is discussed. The possibility of implementing public policies that answer to different social and geographical contexts is discussed The adoption of such measures would hopefully intensify the prevention of suicide as well as reducing the occurrence of this phenomenon. If we search for books, articles, newspapers and texts, or if we go on the Internet and filter the research in all sorts of languages, we are not going to find many approaches relating to the phenomenon of suicide through the legal perspective. The methodology used in this research follows the hypothetical-deductive method and consists mainly from bibliographic analysis through books, dictionaries, newspapers, periodicals, articles, official databases, national and international laws - in different languages - as well as the use and access to all types of materials and instruments available on the Internet
