Participative cartography is often presented as a factor of democratisation and empowerment of societies, but it is also a butt of criticism because of strategies of recuperation and instrumentalization it may be the victim of. Endorsing Harley’s idea (1995) that cartography is above all a language of power, we will examine a series of experiments in participative cartography in Madagascar through a methodology borrowed both from assessment of citizens’ participation and analysis of the uses made of cartography. Malagasy examples prove that in a context of heavy technical, financial and political dependency, that kind of approach immediately conjures up an ethical question, and demands a reflexion on the social influence and power of ³participatives maps. The temporalities and levels of institutionalisation of the participative method, the degree of interaction between the actors and the map that may or may not allow the production of alternative cartographic representations, are so many factors that might either lead to new forms of shared power or on the contrary reinforce interference from outside and inequalities. Keywords: cartography, participation, critical cartography, PPGIS, environment, Madagascar.
