description Social Technologies (STs) represent effective mechanisms to overcome some limits of Conventional Technology and generate social and productive inclusion. Understanding how the articulation of actors on a network around a ST influences the potential of a technological diffusion to other places that are not those of its origin is, thus, fundamental to propagate the participatory local development. In this work, 45 Brazilian ST experiences implemented over the period 2000–2017 were mapped and, through the crossing of data obtained in the empirical analysis (macro ambit) and in the collection form with those responsible for two specific STs (micro ambit), the results went against common sense when indicating that having a hyperconnector that is coherent in relation to the community and interested in promoting the reapplication of ST is more important than the number of actors involved (network density), than the cost of implementation and that the presence of universities and/or city halls in the ST internal network. The median indicated that the number 10 appears to be a safe reference to maintain network density, high connectivity (hyperconnection) and potential for contagion without harming weak ties or encapsulating the network.

Tecnologías Sociales (TSs) representan mecanismos efectivos para superar algunos límites de la Tecnología Convencional y generar inclusión socioproductiva. Comprender cómo la articulación de los actores en una red en torno de una TS influye en su potencial de extenderse a otros lugares distintos a los de sus orígenes es fundamental para fomentar la difusión del desarrollo local participativo. En este trabajo, se mapearon 45 experiencias de TS brasileñas implementadas en el período 2000–2017 y, por medio del cruce de los datos obtenidos en la análisis empírica (macro alcance) y en el cuestionario de recolección con los responsables de dos TS específicas (micro alcance), los resultados fueron contrarios al sentido común quando indicaron que el hecho de haber un hiperconector coherente con la comunidad y interesado en promover la reaplicación de la TS es más importante que el número de actores involucrados, que el costo de implementación y que la presencia de universidades y/o municipalidades en la red interna de la TS. La mediana indicó que el número 10 parece ser una referencia segura para mantener la densidad de la red, la alta conectividad (hiperconexión) y el potencial de contagio sin herir los lazos débiles o encapsular la red. Tecnologias Sociais (TSs) representam mecanismos eficazes de superar alguns limites da Tecnologia Convencional e de gerar inclusão socioprodutiva. Entender como a articulação de atores em rede em torno de uma TS influencia o potencial de esta se difundir a outros locais que não os de suas origens é, logo, fundamental para fomentar a difusão do desenvolvimento local participativo. Neste trabalho, 45 experiências brasileiras de TS implementadas no período de 2000–2017 foram mapeadas e, por meio do cruzamento de dados obtidos nas análises empíricas (âmbito macro) e no questionário de coleta junto aos responsáveis por duas TSs específicas (âmbito micro), os resultados contrariaram o senso comum ao indicarem que o fato de existir um hiperconector coerente com a comunidade e interessado em promover a reaplicação da TS é mais importante do que o número de atores envolvidos (densidade da rede), do que o custo de implementação e do que a presença de Universidades e/ou de Prefeituras na rede interna à TS. A mediana indicou que o número 10 parece ser uma referência segura para manter a densidade de rede, a alta conectividade (hiperconexão) e o potencial de contágio sem colocar em xeque os laços fracos ou encapsular a rede. 2022-01-18 2022-03-18T16:22:50Z 2022-03-18T16:22:50Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/redd/article/view/15950 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/62190 Universidade Estadual de Campinas, UNICAMP, Unidade da Faculdade de Ciências Aplicadas de Limeira-SP, vinculada ao Laboratório de Estudos do Setor Público, LESP REDD – Revista Espaço de Diálogo e Desconexão; v. 13 n. 1 (2021): V. 13 n. 1 (2021) 1984-1736
