The article shows the effect of the cultural dimension on participation. At first it describes democratic impasse caused by the disaffection of citizens, from political force. Two shortcuts are born: populism and plebiscitarism. Then it outlines some reasons: no guarantee of equality, change of party structure, involution of public opinion. Subsequently, the article observes the weight of culture through the comparison between the level of education of Italians and some dimensions of participation. Finally, this suggests some concepts of Karl Mannheim to qualify participation.

Abstract
The article shows the effect of the cultural dimension on participation. At first it describes democratic impasse caused by the disaffection of citizens, from political force. Two shortcuts are born: populism and plebiscitarism. Then it outlines some reasons: no guarantee of equality, change of party structure, involution of public opinion. Subsequently, the article observes the weight of culture through the comparison between the level of education of Italians and some dimensions of participation. Finally, this suggests some concepts of Karl Mannheim to qualify participation.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
