          Abstract

          Se caracteriza el diseño institucional predominante del presupuesto participative y el tipo de participación ciudadana que se produce en éste, para evaluar el alcance que han tenido estas nuevas instituciones participativas en las instituciones democráticas representativas locales. La hipótesis que se sostiene es que dado el diseño institucional que adoptan los presupuestos participativos, la participación ciudadana que se produce es más consultiva que deliberativa, y en algunos casos se usa para renovar relaciones clientelares del representante con el representado. Cuando se provocan procesos de participación ciudadana más sustantivos, ha sido determinante el rol de organizaciones sociales de la sociedad civil. El principal resultado es que para provocar procesos de participación ciudadana complementarios a la democracia representativa, los diseños institucionales no son tan determinantes como la voluntad política de los alcaldes y el rol dinámico de la sociedad civil. La estrategia metodológica utilizada fue el estudio comparado (cross country) del diseño institucional del presupuesto participativo en cinco países. Las herramientas de recolección de datos fueron la entrevista a expertos en cada país y la revisión bibliográfica del tema.

          Translated abstract

          The predominant institutional design of participatory budgeting is characterized here as well as type of citizenship participation that is produced in it, in order to evaluate the incidence that these new participative institutions have had on local democratic representative institutions. The hypothesis is that the institutional design of participatory budgeting promotes a kind of citizenship participation that is more consultative than deliberative. In some cases the participatory budgeting is used to renew clientele relations of the representor with the represented. When processes of citizenship participation are more sustantive, there has been a determinant role played by social organizations of civil society. The principal results show that, in order to provoke the complementary processes of citizenship participation in representative democracy, the institutional designs are not as determinant as the mayors political will and the dynamic role of civil society. The methodological strategy used was the compared study (cross-country) of the institutional design of the participatory budgeting in 5 countries. The tools used for the recollection of data were the interviews with experts in each country, and bibliographic revision of the topic.
