Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ensayo del año 2004 en eltema Sociología - Cultura, tecnología, naciones, Nota: 8,50, , Materia: 2023 - 2024, Idioma: Español, Resumen: El presente ensayo académico aborda en profundidad los Estudios Sociales de la Ciencia y la Tecnología (CTS) como un campo científico extenso que incluye investigación académica, política, científica y educativa y que se ha institucionalizado en universidades, centros de altos estudios y agencias gubernamentales, especialmente en América Latina, con un enfoque crítico sobre los aspectos sociales de los fenómenos científicos y tecnológicos. El estudio destaca la importancia creciente de la relación entre ciencia, tecnología y sociedad, y la necesidad de confirmación experimental que apoye las afirmaciones de los diferentes autores. Se hace alusión al desarrollo de los estudios CTS en cuba, comprendiendo los problemas científicos y tecnológicos del mundo subdesarrollado y analizando las políticas económicas, educativas, científicas y tecnológicas. Aquí se resalta la relevancia de los CTS en la formación de expertos de diversos campos, especialmente en el ámbito de la salud, y la importancia de abordar los desafíos sociales relacionados con la ciencia y la tecnología en el marco de la revolución científica del siglo XXI. En opinión del autor, la ciencia parece encontrarse mucho más preocupada por desarrollar leyes que puedan aplicarse a través de la tecnología, constructos aplicables a la realidad social objetiva. Por otro lado, el autor advierte que actualmente el interés se está desplazando hacia la relación entre ciencia y tecnología en función de su interacción con la sociedad moderna, adquiriendo cada vez más importancia la emergente tecnología en el desarrollo y transformación social, lo que conduce a centrar la investigación en el campo o tema de la relación entre estos dos elementos y en el hecho de que ambos requieren confirmación experimental que apoye las aseveraciones de los diferentes autores. El ensayo destaca la naturaleza interdisciplinaria de los CTS, donde se encuentran disciplinas como la historia, la sociología de la ciencia y la tecnología, la filosofía, la etnología y otras ciencias sociales. En el contexto cubano, se señala que la relevancia de este enfoque se centra en la generación de puntos de vista más responsables de la actividad científica y tecnológica, desde los cuales se fomenta la crítica de concepciones, imaginarios o ideas clásicas que todavía son notorias y ampliamente aceptadas.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume grew out of the experience of the First Inter-American Congress on Philosophy of Technology, October 1988, organized by the Center for the Philosophy and History of Science and Technology of the University of Puerto Rico in Mayagiiez. The Spanish-language proceedings of that conference have been published in Carl Mitcham and Margarita M. Peiia Borrero, with Elena Lugo and James Ward, eds., El nuevo mundo de la filosofta y la tecnolog(a (University Park, PA: STS Press, 1990). This volume contains thirty-two papers, twenty-two summaries, an introduction and biographical notes, to provide a full record of that seminal gathering. Discussions with Paul T. Durbin and others - including many who participated in the Second Inter-American Congress on Philosophy of Technology, University of Puerto Rico in Mayagiiez, March 199- raised the prospect of an English-language proceedings in the Philosophy and Technology series. But after due consideration it was agreed that a more general volume was needed to introduce English-speaking readers to a growing body of literature on the philosophy of technology in the Spanish-speaking world. As such, the present volume includes Spanish as well as Latin American authors, historical and contemporary figures, some who did and many who did not participate in the first and second inter-American congresses.

Download or read book Ethics of Global Development written by David A. Crocker and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2008-07-10 with total page 610 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poverty, inequality, violence, environmental degradation, and tyranny continue to afflict the world. Ethics of Global Development offers a moral reflection on the ends and means of local, national, and global efforts to overcome these five scourges. After emphasizing the role of ethics in development studies, policy-making, and practice, David A. Crocker analyzes and evaluates Amartya Sen's philosophy of development in relation to alternative ethical outlooks. He argues that Sen's turn to robust ideals of human agency and democracy improves on both Sen's earlier emphasis on 'capabilities and functionings' and Martha Nussbaum's version of the capability orientation. This agency-focused capability approach is then extended and strengthened by applying it to the challenges of consumerism and hunger, the development responsibilities of affluent individuals and nations, and the dilemmas of globalization. Throughout the book the author argues for the importance of more inclusive and deliberative democratic institutions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ethics of Agricultural Intensification: An Interdisciplinary and International Conversation Paul B. Thompson and John Otieno Ouko* Global agriculture faces a number of challenges as the world approaches the second decade of the third millennium. Predictions unilaterally indicate dramatic increases in world population between 2010 and 2030, and a trend in developing countries toward greater consumption of animal products could multiply the need for prod- tion of basic grains even further. Although global food production in 2000 was estimated to be adequate for the existing population, hunger and malnutrition are persistent problems that have led decision makers to recognize that increasing food production in specific regions may be the most effective way to address food se- rity for impoverished peoples. At the same time, there will need to be policy adju- ments that improve poor people’s access to current food supplies without simultaneously undercutting the ability of local producers to obtain needed cash income. What is more, the uncertain effects of global climate change on agricultural ecosystems complicate planning for this process, while poorly understood processes of globa- zation create additional unknowns from the side of social systems. In short, despite surpluses in many parts of the developed world, finding ways to increase food p- duction on both selected regional and a total global basis remains a priority for many farmers, policy makers and agricultural researchers.

Download or read book Science, Technology and Innovation Policies for Development written by Gustavo Crespi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-04-11 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the implementation of science, technology and innovation (STI) policy in eight Latin American countries and the different paths these policies have taken. It provides empirical evidence to examine the extent to which STI policies are contributing to the development of the region, as well as to the solution of market failures and the stimulus of the region’s innovation systems. Since the pioneering work of Solow (1957), it has been recognized that innovation is critical for economic growth both in developed and in less-developed countries. Unfortunately Latin America lags behind world trends, and although over the last 20 years the region has established a more stable and certain macroeconomic regime, it is also clear that these changes have not been enough to trigger a process of innovation and productivity to catch-up. Against this rather grim scenario there is some optimism emerging throughout the region. After many years of inaction the region has begun to invest in science, technology and engineering once again. Furthermore, after many changes in innovation policy frameworks, there is now an emerging consensus on the need for a solution to coordination failures that hinder the interaction between supply and demand. Offering an informative and analytic insight into STI policymaking within Latin America, this book can be used by students, researchers and practitioners who are interested in the design and implementation of innovation policies. This book also intends to encourage discussion and collaboration amongst current policy makers within the region.

Book excerpt: In recent years, global institutions such as the World Bank have become increasingly conscious of the role that ethical reflection may play in leading towards more successful knowledge and policy for development. This key book, written by Denis Goulet (founder of the field of development ethics), gathers together his main contributions in three distinct parts, covering: the early journeys of the author's thinking an exposition of the main themes he has explored the transition from early alternative development to alternative globalizations. Goulet examines the evolution of development ethics, illustrates how a development ethicist can function in varied development arenas, explores the ethical dimensions of competing change strategies, and investigates the language of interdependence which prevails in development discourse. The interdisciplinary work traces not only Goulet’s own thinking but also wider theoretical debates, seeking to integrate the findings of analytical, policy, and normative ‘sciences’, as they bear on the development process at the practical level. This makes it an essential read for postgraduates and professionals in the field of economics.
