摘要：In the first decade of the XXI century, a movement for social technology became part of the Social Constructivism of Technology (SCT) studies, by which Science and Technology are viewed as entwined in the sociotechnical processes of everyday life. In Brazil and Latin America, this SCT approach was developed by authors under the name of Sociotechnical Adaptation (STA) theory. This article analyzes three paradigmatic experiences whose social actors focus on social practices and technical improvements, without creating a breach between social and technical contents of social and economic relations. This kind of experience requires broadening scientific and technological policies, both in the University and in state agencies, such as the Ministry of Science, Technology & Innovation.
