　This paper reveals characters of residents’ subject in a slum area, through analyzing strategies of Christian. In this work, the first meaning is focusing on the fact that residents’ association operates in underclass society. The second is focusing on the fact that Christian is not third person but fundamental being for operation of residents’ association.

　It is true that Christian is third parson for a community. But they gradually get into “localisation” to slum society through doing social service. In this process, on the one hand they refrain from religious activity, on the other become resident himself. This “localisation” is tactic practice to realize a immediate purpose. They make equal footing with local residents in a community, changing original aim and role. Nevertheless, they remain in Christian. Being understood by residents these things is intention of strategic “localisation”.

　This paper takes up a case of Higashi-Kujo in Kyoto City. This area is a region that most of Korean (“Zainichi”) in the city live. And this have been going slum outstandingly during the years of steep economic growth. Therefore it intensifies character of underclass society. In this area, “Kibou no Ie” (hope house), catholic facility, has begun social service from 1959 and has became a base of the community building.

　Concretely, the Christian of “Kibou no Ie” play a role of unionising diverse orientations, religious devotion, locality, and anti-discrimination. Each of residents’ subjects have respective orientations. Officersof residents’ association emphasis on locality and are conservative comparatively. But some of young generation in the region, who break away from the association, emphasis on anti-discrimination thoroughly and are radical. The Christian adjust and become the medium of these residents’ subjects. This is “localisation” and a strategy of the Christian. These are factors of which we have to take account in order to think about necessary conditions for making residents' subject.
