At the time of social reform in social-territorial communities, it is impossible to encourage public participation without a clear understanding of its specific features and potential. The article examines a rarely used method for diagnosing public participation in the social-territorial context - the method of social mapping. The author reveals the essence of the method, identifies and describes the main strategies of social mapping of public participation used in today's social research in Russia and other countries.
