Abstract

How can science respond to the particular needs of Latin American societies? How can regional funding of regional science positively influence its growth? The answers to such questions rest on analyses of the configurations of state and politics, relations between instrumental science and the democratic process, and the demographic features of science and technology.

True development will only come with significant political and economic change.
