- Abstract
Suicide with a hostile intent has been described by anthropologists as a phenomenon which is characteristic of native communities in Oceania, South America and Africa. The authors will present the results of a transcultural suicide notes research which may confirm the presence of »meaningful« suicide in contemporary western societies. The research survey confirmed a significant presence of accusative statements written to third persons in the Slovene sample of suicide letters, although such statements were detectable in less than 10 % of notes, written in Hungary and USA.
