The role of suicide in politics, conflict, and terrorism / 
Andrew Silke 
 -  2006 
<br/><br/> Argues that looking at the long history of suicide in politics and conflict is a useful exercise because it facilitates greater objectivity and calmer consideration of the actors and events than can often be the case with contemporary events. Notes that until the 1950s both psychologically and medically suicide could, in some circumstances, be seen as understandable and sane. Uses various examples to support this assertion.
