Death, Grief, and Solidarity: The Polytechnique Case.
Levy, Joseph J.; And Others
Omega: Journal of Death and Dying, v27 n1 p67-74 1993
Following massacre of 14 women at Ecole Polytechnique in 1989, compared content of 690 condolence messages written by public at 2 French universities in Quebec. Results showed that event did not trigger homogeneous social reaction but different reactions according to sex and university, suggesting that social investment factors play role in codification of events related to public deaths.
