Summary/Abstract: In the course of the work there is a presentation of a possible approach for analysing the unevenness of the spatial mortality differences by death causes. There is a review of the major determinants of mortality and the methodological foundation of the mortality spatial asymmetry analysis according to the causes of death. There is a review of the logical and mathematical principles of the correspondence analysis that is adapted for mortality spatial asymmetry analysis by causes. An analysis is made of the sexual differentiation in the death-rate structure by causes for the 2000-2005 period in Bulgaria.
