FALCON ALMEIDA, Yadira; MACIAS LLANES, María Elena  e  CASADO HERNANDEZ, Imilla. Theoretical considerations for studying institutional dimension of science development in Cuba. Rev Hum Med [online]. 2008, vol.8, n.2-3, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1727-8120.

This paper is aimed at supporting a theoretical framework to study the institutionalization process of science in Cuba. When focusing on science as an activity, on its dynamics and integration within social activities, a special attention must be given to institutionalization. Dealing with the institutionalization process of Cuban science is conditioned by specifically economical, political and cultural factors. This paper firstly exposes the role of the scientific technological policy in the development of the institutionalization process. Later on, the place of scientific activity management is characterized. Finally, the approach of those involved is used to clear up the links and relations produced along the institutionalization process.

Palavras-chave : Science, technology and society; institutionalization process of science; scientific technological policy; scientific activity management; approach.
