          Abstract

          Resumen El objeto de este artículo es analizar el aspecto de la religiosidad dentro de la cultura del narcotráfico, en especial, la devoción al santo popular Jesús Malverde en México, entre los siglos XIX y XXI. La hipótesis sostenida por este trabajo es que, a partir de la década de 1970, con el incremento del aparato represivo al combate a las drogas y el aumento del consumo por parte de Estados Unidos, la devoción al santo pasó por una resignificación. El culto a Malverde fue tanto adoptado por la cultura del narcotráfico del modo más ostensivo, como cruzó fronteras geográficas y culturales.

          Abstract The purpose of this article is to analyze the religious aspect of the drug trafficking culture, in particular, the devotion to the popular saint Jesus Malverde in Mexico between the 19th and 21st centuries. The guiding hypothesis is that the worship of this saint has been resignified since the 1970s as a response to a stronger repressive apparatus against drugs due to the increase in drug use in the United States. The Malverdian cult was adopted by the drug trafficking culture in the most ostensive way, and it has crossed geographic and cultural borders.
