A scholarly study of suicide was initiated by some European researchers a little more
that a century ago, and it has continued since then. Especially after World War II, suicide
research acquired an inter-disciplinary, international scale and outlook. It might be said,
however, that the real, systematic and inter-disciplinary nature of scientific suicide
research was given its proper title and definition when Dr. Edwin Schneiderman, the
founder and subsequently director of the world-famous Los Angeles Suicide Prevention
Center, formally coined the term “suicidology.”
Suicidology constitutes three main areas of concern: (1) epidemiology of suicide
(statistical distribution of suicide rates in terms of socio-economic-demographic variables,
involving demographers, sociologists, police officials and statisticians); (2) theories of
suicide (explanations of motives leading to suicide, involving psychiatrists,
sociologists, psychologists, philosophers, etc.); (3) clinical treatment and prevention work
(involving physicians, psychiatrists, sociologists, psychologists, social workers, religious
practitioners, teachers, nurses, crisis-intervention volunteers, telephone emergency ser
vice workers, et al.j.
My own area of specialization, “Comparative Suicidology,” is simply a cross-cultural
branch of suicidology. It is a new area of suicide research, focusing its attention on the
intrinsic and extrinsic relations between suicidal behaviour and culture.
The statistical data of the past 200 years show that suicide is far more frequent in
Europe than in other areas of the world. The 20th century is no exception. The highest rate
of suicide is observed in European countries, followed by the United States, Canada, Japan,
Australia, New Zealand, France, and countries around the Mediterranean.'Much lower rates
are in;Latin America, Asia and Africa. It is obvious that suicide is closely related to a high
degree of socio-economic development. Even in Europe,

VANCOUVER — The Uni

was honoured early in 1983
by the gift of a Japanese tem

sman Masahiko Katori. This
beir was presented to the
university by Mr. Katori's
son-in-law, His Excellency
Kiyohisa Mikanagi, the Japa
nese Ambassador to Canada.
And now the university is
seeking donations to enable
the construction of a bell
tower on the grounds of the
Asian Centre at UBC.
Estimates for the construc

$80,000 Canadian.
In keeping with the basic
design philosophy adopted in
the construction of the Asian
Centre Building and its sur
rounding garden, the bell
tower design will adhere
closely to traditional building
forms while being construc

The bell will be hung from a
roof structure set on an
elevated platform similar to
those which are common at
many temples.in Japan.
The War Measures Act gives the government the right to
pass laws through orders-in-council - that is by circumven
ting the parliament-“in the event of war, invasion, or insurrection.” This act was the source of grief for Japanese Cana
dian, and it is understandable that some of them would like
to see the act revised.
Redress is our primary goal, goes the reasoning, but that
is not enough. It is up to us who bore the blunt of injustices
perpetrated under the War Measures Act to see to it that the

not happen again.
