RIVERA RIOS, Miguel Ángel; ROBERT, Verónica  e  YOGUEL, Gabriel. Cambio tecnológico, complejidad e instituciones: el caso de Argentina y México. Prob. Des [online]. 2009, vol.40, n.157, pp.75-109. ISSN 0301-7036.

This article combines the contributions of a number of theories on technological and institutional change that help to explain the persistence of the "underdevelopment trap" in the sense of persistent flaws in coordination to drive technological learning. As its point of departure, it assumes a broadly evolutionist theoretical framework, whose axis is the diversity of agents in terms of capacities of absorption and connectivity and the effects of feedback in the learning processes that empower processes of appropriation, structural change and creative destruction, giving rise to non-linear dynamics that impose their specificity on development paths. The theoretical treatment is complemented by the results of two empirical studies carried out independently in Argentine and Mexican industries.

Palavras-chave : Latin America; technological change; complex systems; economic development in Asia/Latin America; industrial development; structural change.
