This article discusses a model of local governance referred to here as 'participatory security', in which citizens are held responsible for maintaining urban security by participating in municipal programmes. I argue that the goals of universal 'inclusion' through democratic 'participation' are undermined by political ideologies espousing both rights and responsibilities of citizenship. Through ethnographic cases from highland Peru, in which city centre neighbourhoods and peripheral zones are expected to participate in markedly different fashions, I demonstrate how the discourse of responsibilities translates into differential participation and effectively institutionalises the layered imbalances of urban citizenship in new and highly consequential ways
