| description | The absence of national projects that have attempted to institutionalize endogenous innovation capacities in Latin America has constituted a critical structural impediment to development. This article presents an analysis of themes relating to technology and development froma heterodox perspective. A large number of nations have abandoned important incipient efforts to promote a degree of technological autonomy as was undertaken during the period of state-led industrialization. This article emphasizes technology policy during the state-led era and its current possibilities. In order to ground this effort, we present a comparative analysis contrasting the diametric cases of Mexico and Brazil. We focus on national institutional structures, such as the prevailing ideology and the economic power structure, since these are the most decisive factors in the formulation of national policies governing national technological development. |

La ausencia de proyectos nacionales que permitan institucionalizar las capacidades innovadoras endógenas en América Latina ha constituido un impedimento estructural crítico al desarrollo. Se presenta en este artículo un análisis de los temas relacionados con la tecnología y el desarrollo desde una perspectiva heterodoxa. Gran parte de las naciones abandonaron sus esfuerzos incipientes por desarrollar un grado de autonomía tecnológica en contraste con los emprendimientos arrancados durante el periodo de la industrialización dirigida por el Estado. Este artículo hace hincapié en las políticas tecnológicas montadas durante este periodo y las prospectivas actuales. Para anclar el trabajo, presentamos un análisis comparativo entre los casos dimétricos de México y Brasil, enmarcado en las estructuras institucionales generadas por el poder económico y la ideología dominante, siendo los factores determinantes en la formulación de las políticas nacionales de ciencia y tecnología.
