As Medina, Marques, and Holmes argue in the introduction to this book, science and technology studies (STS) scholars in Latin America have a strong tradition of critiquing foreign science and technology (S & T) models of development and their unidirectional model of technology transfer. One of the most salient issues in this trend has been a critique of the failure to relate “ universal ” research agendas to the pressing needs of the local population, a critique that has also been instrumental in producing alternative, autonomous agendas for the development of S & T (Dagnino, Thomas, and Davyt 1996).
