From the abstract, &#8220;Participatory mechanisms are understood as settings for citizens&#8217; political engagement. However, participants frequently depict these institutions as nonpolitical. In this paper, the political scope of participatory institutions is examined through a case-study of town meetings (concejos abiertos) in the Basque Country (Spain)&#8221;.
