“…The recognised virtues of participation in healthcare systems highlighted by literature on the subject include the following: a) the capacity to strengthen the voice of health service users as a strategy for overcoming the democratic deficit that characterizes heath systems after the managerial reforms of the 1990s (Cooper et al, 1995); b) users' experiences and their knowledge, as a means of improving the quality of healthcare decisions (Charles and DeMaio, 1993;Bovemkamp et al, 2009;Lehoux et al, 2009); c) citizen participation as a means of increasing the legitimacy and accountability of healthcare systems (Tritter and McCallum, 2006); d) the fact that citizen participation brings community needs and health service responses closer together (Franskish et al, 2002); e) the fact that the public healthcare system is more effective when decisions reflect the users perspective (Scuthfield et al, 2006;Matos, 2011).…”

“…In this context, protests and other forms of collective action appear to introduce the somewhat neglected concept of civil society into the debate, reflected in the mobilisation of the lower classes in the fight to participate and have a voice in healthcare decisions (Matos, 2011). Although this is a more comprehensive and utopian approach to participation (Neveu, 2011) it can no longer be dismissed when citizen participation is at stake.…”
