Native Evangelism in Central Mexico
Evangelical Christianity is Mexico's fastest-growing religious movement, with about ten million adherents today. Most belong to Protestant denominations introduced from the United States (e.g., Jehovah's Witnesses, Seventh-day Adventists), but perhaps as many as 800,000 are members of homegrown, "native" evangelical sects. These native Mexican sects share much with the American denominations of which they are spinoffs. For instance, they are Trin…
The Mexican Aristocracy: An Expressive Ethnography, 1910-2000
"This ethnography describes the transformation of the Mexican aristocracy from the onset of the Mexican Revolution of 1910, when the aristocracy was unquestionably Mexico's highest-ranking social class, until the end of the twentieth century, when it had almost ceased to function as a superordinate social group. Drawing on extensive interviews with group members, Nutini maps out the expressive aspects of aristocratic culture in such areas as perc…

Annotation
The Mexican Aristocracy: An Expressive Ethnography, 1910–2000
The Mexican aristocracy today is simultaneously an anachronism and a testimony to the persistence of social institutions. Shut out from political power by the democratization movements of the twentieth century, stripped of the basis of its great wealth by land reforms in the 1930s, the aristocracy nonetheless maintains a strong sense of group identity through the deeply held belief that their ancestors were the architects and rulers of Mexico for…

Class and Ethnicity in Mexico: Somatic and Racial Considerations
Based on research conducted during the past twenty years on superordinate stratification in Mexico City and class system of several cities, this article has three goals. First, it establishes the historical origin of ethnic categories that began strictly as racial categories in the sixteenth century. Second, it describes the main ethnic sectors of contemporary Mexican society, their class composition, and the principles of social mobility. Third,…
Mesoamerican Community Organization: Preliminary Remarks
During the past three generations, ethnology has benefitted enormously from ethnographic research conducted in various culture areas of the world. This is not only due to the increasing corpus of factual information: many concepts formulated with reference to specific culture areas were significantly modified and refined when applied to other areas. This is readily seen with regard to social organization and religion, as many concepts in common u…

Blood-Sucking Witchcraft: An Epistemological Study of Anthropomorphic Supernaturalism in Rural Tlaxcala
Blood-Sucking Witchcraft, an Epistemological Study of Anthropomorphic Supernaturalism in Rural Tlaxcala
In the rural areas of south-central Mexico, there are believed to be witches who transform themselves into animals in order to suck the blood from the necks of sleeping infants. This book analyzes beliefs held by the great majority of the population of rural Tlaxcala a generation ago and chronicles its drastic transformation since then. The most comprehensive statement on this centrally important ethnographic phenomenon in the last forty years. I…

Witchcraft Event Staging in Rural Tlaxcala: A Study in Inferred Deception
Since bloodsucking witches do not actually exist in rural Tlaxcala, Mexico, each of the 47 witchcraft events considered here must have been, to some degree, staged. Each event was centered on the death of a child and the staging of each event, among other things, served to convince others that the child, who most probably died from various natural causes, negligence or infanticide, was indeed the victim of a bloodsucking witch. Although any study…
Pre-Hispanic Component of the Syncretic Cult of the Dead in Mesoamerica
the global configuration of the Catholic-folk-pagan religion. This article analyzes the pre-Hispanic component of the cult of the dead that, together with a structural and ideological equivalent of Spanish-Catholic origin, coalesced into a syncretic institution by the middle of the 17th century and has permanently marked the communal and regional discharge of folk Catholicism until the present. In a wider sense, it contributes to the study of syn…

The Ideological Bases of Lévi-Strauss's Structuralism
It is clear that Lévi-Strauss combines in his writings, and often inextricably, the roles of anthropologist (read scientist) and philosopher (read ideologist). This rather unusual combination of anthropological and philosophical dimensions of Lévi-Strauss's thought is the result of two tendencies that often seem to be pulling in different directions: his scientific conception of socio-cultural phenomena (or the delineation of a scientific method …
