Abstract

The increased frequency of suicide among Inuit in the North is reviewed and compared with an analysis of public files on suicides in Greenland 1977-86. From these files some kind of small scale "psychological" autopsy is performed, and the material is analyzed in relation to theories of socialization and acculturation.
