DULCICH, Federico. Especialización internacional y escaso desarrollo endógeno de tecnología en la Argentina. Cienc. docencia tecnol. [online]. 2018, n.56, pp.74-108. ISSN 1851-1716.

As a consequence of important technological and institutional transformations of the last decades, innovations are not necessarily conducted by industrial firms, and are even traded in a disembodied manner at the international level. This way, it is possible to restructure the classic dichotomy between primary products and industrial goods of classical structuralist theory as a polarization between development and adoption of technology (called the «New International Division of Labour»), which makes the effects of the National System of Innovation relevant in the international trade. The objective of this paper is to study the international specialization of Argentina, which shows a strong net demand of technology associated with an insufficient endogenous development of it. This phenomenon expresses, among other fundamentals, inconsistencies between productive and scientific-technological policies, lack of financing for the science and technology system, and problems of interaction and composition between its public and private components.

Palabras clave : International division of labour; Technological development; Technology adoption; Argentina.
