Abstract
A considerable proportion of the studies carried out on technical progress in Latin America has been based on the assumption —often implicit— that the technological behaviour of our societies as regards the introduction of new technical processes or products is almost entirely passive. What is more, economic theory too adopts this assumption in explaining the ways in which technical know-how is transferred from the developed to the developing countries.
