Introdução: o suicídio é um problema prioritário, razão pela qual se pretende explorar a relação entre o suicídio e a violência estrutural, recorrendo a uma abordagem teórica baseada nas teorias de Johan Galtung sobre a violência e nos tipos de suicídio de Emile Durkheim. Metodologia: adotou-se um estudo de revisão que compila 50 estudos para enriquecer a análise conceitual a fim de conectar essas teorias com as manifestações contemporâneas do suicídio. Resultados: A violência estrutural e cultural, profundamente enraizada nas desigualdades sociais e económicas, influencia significativamente os comportamentos suicidas, especialmente em populações marginalizadas. Conclusão: é necessário dar continuidade à linha de pesquisa que despatologiza o suicídio e desloca o interesse das determinações clínicas e individuais para as interações sociais e a violência estrutural, para construir uma perspectiva interdisciplinar autêntica que contribua para a compreensão do suicídio como um fenômeno multideterminado.
