Descripción
This paper undertakes a critical analysis of the strategies for fighting social exclusion currently applied in Latin America, with regard to science and technology (S&T) policy and the local production of technologies oriented to social inclusion. It considers two of the most significant countries (Brazil and Argentina) in terms of: economic growth, increase in R&D investments, and poverty-reduction programs during the last decade. However, this scenario contrasts with the persisting inequality in income distribution, as well as with persisting structural shortcomings. After a review of the economic growth and S&T policy trends (and the unresolved problem of structural exclusion) the paper examines the inadequacy of local S&T agendas concerning population needs and the problems involved in the performance of currently available technologies for social inclusion. The paper ends with an analytical–normative section related to strategic aspects of potential solutions to development and ex/inclusion issues.
