Based on professional experience in both the academic and governmental fields in Argentina, it problematizes the disconnection between anthropological knowledge and the temporalities and languages of public management. Through the MPPA, the aim is to overcome disciplinary dichotomies and to build an analytical and intervention framework that is sensitive to social complexity, incorporating participation as a cross-cutting dimension. The article also discusses the limits and tensions of the approach. Este artículo presenta el Enfoque Multiescalar de Políticas Públicas (EMPP), una herramienta teórico-metodológica que articula la etnografía con la macroplanificación estatal para intervenir en el diseño, gestión y evaluación de políticas desde una mirada situada y crítica. Basado en experiencias profesionales en el campo académico y de gestión, problematiza la desconexión/distancia entre el saber antropológico y temporalidades y lenguajes de la gestión pública. A través del EMPP, se busca superar dicotomías disciplinares y construir un marco de análisis e intervención sensible a la complejidad social, incorporando la(s) participación(es) como dimensión transversal. Se discuten también límites y tensiones del enfoque. Este artigo apresenta a Abordagem Multiescalar de Políticas Públicas (AMPP), uma ferramenta teórico-metodológica que articula a etnografia com o macroplanejamento estatal para intervir no desenho, na gestão e na avaliação de políticas públicas a partir de uma perspectiva situada e crítica. Com base em experiências profissionais nos campos acadêmico e estatal na Argentina, problematiza a desconexão entre o saber antropológico e as temporalidades e linguagens da gestão pública. Por meio da AMPP, busca-se superar dicotomias disciplinares e construir um marco de análise e intervenção sensível à complexidade social, incorporando a(s) participação(ões) como dimensão transversal. O artigo também discute os limites e tensões da abordagem.
