Abstract: The author discusses the different reasons for promoting patient and public involvement (PPI) in research. One argument is that it is a moral imperative and therefore best considered as a way of democratising science. Another is that PPI contributes to new and different forms of knowledge. The author concludes that a political conceptualisation best captures the new knowledge that marginalised health groups can produce.
