Abstract

The extensive use of participatory strategies and their transformation into politically correct slogans have made this concept lose its strength; however, there is still unexplored potential when we overcome the mere participative rhetoric. From that path, this article argues that temporary interventions that encourage participation favor social cohesion, because as they co-produce the world people tend to value diversity and, in the words of Latour, can also ‘learn to be moved’.
