Abstract
NAGAFUCHI, Thiago. The logics of absence or the absence of logics: how to answer the challenge of understanding suicide?. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2019, vol.53, n.4, pp. 239-253. ISSN 0486-641X.
In this paper, I discuss how challenging it is to propose a philosophical understanding on suicide and how a theoretical and multidisciplinary bias, here as a concise counterpoint between the Anthropology and the Psychoanalysis, has heuristic and epistemological potential to unveil the phenomenon. I also introduce the narrative of a case from an ethnographic research to incorporate elements in the discussion about suicide.
