Without belittling the merits of best practices, the fi eld of studies and implementations of participation are conditioned by an underestimate of logical impasses and this limits the full achievability of democratic hopes. The need to rethink the parties involved, the morphologies and the social interaction in a basically plural manner, going beyond the absolute pre-eminence of verbal communication between and with the people with which it is intended to share implementation processes and consideration of the particularities of some contexts which are not recognised by the usual dialogue type approach are just some of the issues which deserve attention. In addition to a revaluation of elitism and a preference for mixed models, one promising path is that of refl ection on experiences by which persons can concretely work on caring for public assets, experiencing paths of emancipation.
