This article presents the three major senses associated with the term participation (political, social and managerial) as well as their associated features. A rapid study of participation ideology shows the durability of the concept, whilst a number of global factors (generalisation of the concept, new fields of application, new measures and diffusion of new information and communication technologies) suggest that the general framework conditioning participation will evolve. The specific characteristics of territorial participation are then hyghlighted, as well as the key issues linked to the management of information.
