Abstract

In modern municipal administrations, it is essential to involve social actors in decisions related to public service. Considering that few models of citizen participatory processes exist, this article aims to describe the process used by market administrators and municipal authorities to change the management model from a public market to a private market. Following Yin’s suggestions, we used the qualitative case study method in four stages: study planning, data collection (interviews and documentation), data analysis, and presentation of results. The product we obtained is a framework that describes the participatory process used to change the management model of the market from public to private. The conclusions we reached for the market management change process to be successful were that political will on the part of the authorities, empowerment of civil society in decision-making, and the leadership of a woman belonging to the market are necessary.
