| Research Abstract |
The Cult of Saint Death as the Mexican Popular Culture has following characteristics.1)Appropriating the existing cultural resources including social space such as Tepito districtgranted with negative image, 2)providing an identity of subordinate social ranks to their Believers, and 3) swaying the existing cultural category. On the other hands, the Cult possesses verbal manifestations at global, national, and local levels, characterized as categorization by uncertain verbal explanation. At the same time, it has confirmed that in the movement of minorityreligion, there are some categories about legitimacy and heresy, and that there is more social sanction to the institutional movement.
