It is argued that "community participation", now generally accepted as essential to primary health care, should not be interpreted as merely the mobilization of human and material resources. Rather, it should be understood as the community increasing its control over the social, political, economic, and environmental factors affecting the health status of all its members. The study describes and analyzes the reactions of PHC communities in one rural and one urban area of Peru. It is argued that different socioeconomic, political, and historical characteristics account for the major part of the communities' different reactions.
