L’underground rassemble des individus et des cultures en marge des habitudes culturelles dites « mainstream », largement relayées par les médias de masse et les institutions de leurs époques.	The underground brings together individuals and cultures on the margins of so-called mainstream cultural customs which are widely spread by the mass media and the institutions of their era.
On y trouve souvent des critiques des normes sociales, des morales, des codes inhérents à l'organisation sociale qui y est parfois conspuée, ainsi que des techniques de communication et des réseaux de diffusion alternatifs aux moyens traditionnels (fanzines plutôt que grande presse, vente ou échange lors d'événements plutôt que commerce par grande distribution, prône du « do it yourself » et de l'autogestion).	There, you often find criticisms of social norms, morals and codes inherent to society, something which is sometimes vilified, as well as communication techniques and broadcasting networks which are nontraditional (fanzines rather than big press, sale or exchange at events rather than retail trade, advocates of "do it yourself" and self-management).
Cette exclusion du système courant n'est cependant pas systématiquement délibérée, et l'engagement sociopolitique n'est que facultatif.	However this exclusion from the mainstream is not systematically deliberate, and socio-political commitment is not mandatory.
On peut ainsi également considérer comme underground tout milieu associé à de quelconques comportements déviants.	You could also consider any sphere associated with any deviant behavior as underground.
Les mouvements underground se distinguent ainsi par un éloignement des cultures et des médias de masse et, d'autre part, par des valeurs véhiculées souvent considérées comme n'étant pas socialement ou politiquement correctes, voire subversives.	The underground movements are thus, on the one hand, distinguished by a distance from mass media and cultures and, on the other hand, by the perceived values which are often considered as socially or politically incorrect, or even subversive.
Leurs protagonistes tiennent souvent à rester dans l'ombre; un certain élitisme se développe parfois, chacun voulant rester en compagnie d'autres personnes partageant les mêmes passions sans que ces dernières ne soient galvaudées par un effet de mode, dans le but, avoué, de conserver leur « identité culturelle ».	The most prominent members of underground movements often stay in the shadows - sometimes a certain elitism develops. With the stated purpose of preserving their "cultural identity", each one wants to remain in the company of other people who share the same passions without these passions being ruined by becoming fashionable.
