Descrição
The article starts from the understanding of institutionalized participation in the context of historical forms of participation in Brazil in the last three decades, highlighting the passage from the moment of initial enthusiasm, which encouraged it as the way out for the revitalization of representative democracy, to a second moment, where participatory practice has itself become a problem. Then, it addresses the different government strategies in its current movement to dismantle participation channels in the federal sphere, promoting a complete turn in the Brazilian participatory experience. Having explained the political
crossroads, the article develops a series of arguments that point to the need to rescue the participation of its place of abandonment, in the current scenario of democratic recession, seeking to overcome its limits and dilemmas.||The article starts from the understanding of institutionalized participation in the context of historical forms of participation in Brazil in the last three decades, highlighting the passage from the moment of initial enthusiasm, which encouraged it as the way out for the revitalization of representative democracy, to a second moment, where participatory practice has itself become a problem.

Em seguida, aborda as diferentes estratégias governamentais em seu movimento atual de desmonte dos canais de participação na esfera federal, promovendo uma guinada completa na experiência participativa brasileira. Explicitada a encruzilhada política, o artigo desenvolve uma série de argumentos que apontam para a necessidade de resgatar a participação do seu lugar de abandono, no atual cenário de recessão democrática, buscando superar os seus limites e dilemas.
