En España constituye desde hace 11 años la primera causa de fallecimiento no natural (INE, 2017). En el presente estudio se exponen de forma exhaustiva los datos disponibles en cuanto al fenómeno en Andalucía. Para ello se han analizado los datos del Instituto Nacional de Estadística (INE) en el período comprendido entre 2008 y 2017. Entre las conclusiones, es señalable la diferencia entre provincias en cuanto a número de suicidios, entre sexos (siendo más frecuente en varones), así como la alta tasa de suicidas entre los mayores de 75 años.

  • Cochran,-Diana---Seeing-Inside--The-Sea-Inside-.Pdf
    “Among college-age youth (20–24 years) in the United States, suicide is the third leading cause of death.”1 Our youth today struggle with emotional and mental issues which are sometimes manifested in self-destructive behaviors or even attempts at suicide. Thus, I believe the Spanish film “Mar Adentro” (The Sea Inside) is powerful and relevant to our college-aged students. It relates the true story of Ramón Sampedro who is paralyzed in a diving accident and spends the next twenty-nine years of his life fighting for the legal right to carry out an assisted suicide. He loses the legal battle, but does find someone to help him end his life. He sips potassium cyanide from a straw as this person films his death. This event, which occurs in Galicia, Spain in 1998, sparks a national debate in Spain about the legality and justification of euthanasia, assisted suicide, and suicide in general. In the aftermath of Sampedro’s death, the filming of which was exposed to the public, his suicide assistant (a close female friend) is arrested, then released, and a popular campaign erupts in Spain with many claiming to be “the one” who helped him die. Even politicians show their support for his decision by signing a document stating they helped Sampedro to die.2 I use this film in a 300-level course called “Hispanic Culture through the Media Arts”. One of my objectives in the course is to begin to develop the skill of comprehending a wide variety of topics in films. This movie certainly helps in that regard.
