Diálogo y transferencia dialéctica de saberes/conocimientos
Abstract
Desde finales del siglo pasado ha aumentado considerablemente y de manera exponencial la cantidad de informaciones y conocimientos en todos los ámbitos científicos y tecnológicos. A ello habría que agregarle el la riqueza de los saberes ancestrales y populares, los cuales han adquirido recientemente un alto significado en nuestras sociedades, producto de las luchas libradas durante los últimos años por parte de los pueblos indígenas y los espacios conquistados por los/as trabajadores/as del mundo. Estos procesos de transformación sociopolítica transcontinental han llevado a la incorporación de los saberes ancestrales y populares, unidos a los saberes institucionalizados, en los respectivos curricula de algunos países de América Latina y el Caribe. Ahora nos encontramos con nuevas formas de comprender, aplicar y gestionar los saberes y conocimientos científicos y tecnológicos, especialmente en relación con el diálogo y la transferencia recíproca de estas tres formas conceptuales de los saberes y conocimientos. El presente trabajo intenta discutir esta temática a la luz de los múltiples resultados empíricos y teóricos logrados durante los últimos años. Para ello, nos hemos apoyado en un conjunto de citas textuales altamente relevantes, vinculadas con el diálogo y la transferencia de saberes/ conocimientos, lo cual contribuirá a la elaboración de posicionamientos críticos sobre los procesos de interacción científica y tecnológica, siempre con la intención de alcanzar el objetivo del vivir bien para toda la población de cada uno de nuestros países.
The wealth of information and knowledge in all scientific and technological áreas has increased exponentially since the end of the last century. We can add to this the riches of the ancestral and popular knowledge, which have recently gained new significance in our societies thanks to the battles the indigenous people fought during the past years and the spaces that were conquered by the workers worldwide. These transcontinental socio-cultural transformations have allowed for the incorporation of ancestral and popular knowledge, uniting them with the institutionalized knowledge in the respective curricula of some countries in Latin America and the Caribbean. We now learn about new forms of understanding and of applying and managing scientific-technological knowledge in relation to the dialogue and reciprocal transfer between these three conceptual forms of wisdom and knowledge. This article discusses this topic in light of the multiple empirical and theoretical results of recent years. As a basis for discussion we rely on a set of relevant quotations that are linked to the dialogue of the transference of wisdom/knowledge, which contribute to the elaboration of a critical position with regard to the processes of scientific and technological interaction, aiming at the objective of achieving the living well for the entire population or each of our countries.
