| description | Introduction to the Dossier In this article, the trajectory of science and technology (S&T) in Latin America is described. This trajectory has been divided into two stages. One corresponds to the creation of this field of study between the 1960s and the 1980s, during which the political focus on problems of development related to science and technology was most fruitful. Other lines of research were linked to internalist historical studies and, toward the end of the 1980s, to sociological and anthropological studies with a constructivist focus. The second stage begins in the 1990s and continues to the present. It covers, in large part, work on the economics of technological change and studies on policies and the implementation of technology, and, to a lesser extent, the sociology and history of technology. In addition to analyzing the focuses within these large areas of work on S&T, this article points out the absences and thematic gaps in this field of research. |
