Abstract

The paper presents the progress of a theoretical analysis developed to create a framework between social studies of science and technology and the economics of innovation and technological change. The framework aims to formulate for Latin America a question about the scope of the ST & I policies. This question, involves from the framework, that ST & I policies must be approached from a multidimensional: narrative, critical and explanatory. But that in turn resume the momentum of political praxis implicit in the tradition of Latin American thought science, technology and society. These hybrid research efforts, arising from the framework, must exist by political praxis articulatory emergency. These emergency spaces recognize the plurality of theoretical and political positions, which in turn raise the horizon of action shape spaces for developing new sociotechnical configurations capable of orienting the multidimensional sense development (social inclusion, economic development and structural change).
