Abstract

En este trabajo se analizan los avances en materia de cambio tecnológico logrados por un conjunto de países de América Latina y el Caribe, caracterizados por la expansión del comercio internacional y la atracción de inversión extranjera directa (IED) en los últimos 20 años. Se procuró cubrir tanto los aspectos teóricos como los aplicados, revisando antecedentes bibliográficos junto con la recopilación de información estadística para construir indicadores específicos. En el aspecto teórico, el acento se puso en la identificación y el examen de antecedentes analíticos y conceptuales relevantes para el estudio de las capacidades tecnológicas en los países en desarrollo. La parte aplicada consistió en la recopilación de información y datos estadísticos disponibles, con los cuales se han construido y analizado un conjunto de indicadores que combinan distintas proximaciones posibles, a fin de ampliar las posibilidades de captura de las especificidades de los países estudiados y de evaluar su evolución en las dos últimas décadas. Indicators for Latin American technological capacities Abstract: This report analyzes the technological advances achieved by a group of countries of Latin America and the Caribbean which are characterized by an expansion of international trade and increased attraction of direct foreign investment in the last 20 years. The report attempts to shed light on theoretical- and empirical aspects, by means of revising previous bibliographies and statistical information in order to create specific indicators. Theoretically, the emphasis was put on identifying previous analytical and conceptual models relating to analyzing the technological capacities of developing countries. The empirical portion consisted of gathering information and statistical data available, upon which indicators have been constructed to serve as analytical tools for investigating the specific conditions of the different countries and evaluate their individual development processes during the last two decades.
