Resumo: Since 2008, Lisbon has been the first European capital to adopt a Participatory Budget (PB) process at a municipal scale to involve its inhabitants in the elaboration and ranking of the proposals to be included in a predetermined slice of the city council’s budget. Lisbon’s process has become a benchmark for various similar experiences, both in Portugal and abroad. It brought innovative elements into the international debate, such as the use of new technologies to present and rank proposals, and therefore it sought to focus on the construction of a more "European" model of PB. One of the innovative features of the Lisbon PB (Lx-PB) process - among the first to be more than merely advisory, unlike most previous experiences in Portugal - is its evolutional nature. It allowed to capitalize and increase, over its various editions, a more inclusive matrix through enhanced dialogue with citizens and a gradual improvement of the deliberative quality, derived from various learning experiences related to errors and limits observed throughout the participatory path. This article - paying special attention to the incremental and evolutional nature of the experiment - aims to highlight some peculiarities of the first five years of life of the Lx-PB, stressing the limits and changes over time.

Le processus lisboète est devenu la référence majeure pour diverses expériences similaires, aussi bien au Portugal que dans d’autres pays. Il a apporté des éléments innovants au débat international, par exemple, l’utilisation des nouvelles technologies informatiques pour présenter et classer les propositions, et a aussi visé à la construction d’un modèle de BP plus « européen ». L’une des caractéristiques novatrices du BP de Lisbonne (OP-Lx), en plus de n’être pas uniquement consultatif (contrairement à la majeure partie des expériences précédentes au Portugal), est sa nature évolutive. Celle-ci a permis de tirer partie d’une participation de plus en plus importante au fil des années par le biais d’un renforcement du dialogue avec les citoyens et d’une amélioration progressive de la nature délibérative grâce aux enseignements tirés des erreurs et aux limites observées tout au long du parcours participatif. Le présent article, axé sur le caractère évolutif et incrémental de l’expérimentation, vise à mettre en évidence certaines particularités constatées au cours des cinq premières années du BP de Lisbonne, en soulignant ses limites et ses évolutions.Lisboa es, desde 2008, la primera capital europea que adoptó un procedimiento de Presupuesto Participativo (OP) a escala municipal, con objetivo de implicar a los habitantes en la construcción y jerarquización de propuestas a incluir en una parte predeterminada del presupuesto municipal. El procedimiento lisboeta se convirtió en una referencia importante para varios procesos afines, tanto en Portugal como en otros países. Aportó elementos innovadores al debate internacional, como el uso de las nuevas tecnologías de información para presentar y jerarquizar propuestas, y también trató de incidir en la construcción de un modelo más “europeo” de OP. Una de las características innovadoras del OP de Lisboa (OP-Lx) —además de ser uno de los primeros que dejó de ser sólo consultivo como la mayoría de las experiencias anteriores en Portugal— es su naturaleza evolutiva. Permitió capitalizar e incrementar una matriz más inclusiva a lo largo de sus varias ediciones, a través del refuerzo del diálogo con los ciudadanos y una mejora gradual de la calidad deliberativa, derivada de varias enseñanzas asociadas a errores y límites observados en el proceso participativo. El presente artículo — reservando una especial atención al carácter evolutivo e incremental de la experiencia— pretende poner de manifiesto algunas peculiaridades de los primeros cinco años de vida del OP-Lx, subrayando los límites y modificaciones a lo largo del tiempo.Institut Veolia Environnement2014info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://hdl.handle.net/10316/36682http://hdl.handle.net/10316/36682eng1867-8521http://factsreports.revues.org/3363Allegretti, GiovanniAntunes, Sofiainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2020-05-25T04:56:57Zoai:estudogeral.uc.pt:10316/36682Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T20:50:23.430034Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
