Title | Representing suicide: giving voice to a desire to die? |
Authors | Marsh, I., Winter, R. and Marzano, L. |
Abstract | Drawing on interview and online ethnographic data from a study of suicide on the railways, this paper describes the ways in which many of the concepts, assumptions and practices of mainstream suicide prevention are challenged in the accounts of those who are planning, or have enacted, a suicide attempt. We reflect on the ethical dilemmas which can arise for researchers (and practitioners) when lived experience accounts diverge – theoretically, morally, and in terms of practical implications – from present-day expert ones. |
