From a sociology of emotions perspective, this article proposes a new interpretation of Durkheim' suicide theory. Despite the positivistic approach that inspired his empirical analysis, a detailed review of his theoretical model shows that the main objective of his work was to prove the social causation of emotions. Furthermore, an analysis of the emotions that pervades Durkheim' Suicide is very useful to specify, without ambiguities, the integrative and regulative forms of social cohesión, which are at the base of his suicide typology (altruist/egoist and fatalist/anomic). Integration is related to the intercommunicative dimensión of social order, henee the fact that this form of social cohesión was linked to shame and pride emotions. Regulation is related to the Interactive dimensión of social order, henee the fact that this form was linked to anger and frustration emotions.
