 Inadequacy of technology and innovation systems at the periphery: notes on Celso Furtado's contributions for a dialogue ...
The concept of "inadequacy of technology" may be, on the one hand, an enlightening assessment of the technological condition of underdevelopment and, on the other hand, a helpful "focusing device" for an agenda on innovation systems at the periphery.
Furtado's approach on inappropriate technology may uncover the social roots of the well know "low-growth trap" of less-developed economies.
Celso Furtado explains how inadequacy of technology is related to the polarization "modernization-marginalization" that characterizes economies with immature systems of innovation, as the Brazilian economy.

 Method and passion in Celso Furtado
The method that Celso Furtado used was essentially historical; his passion -a measured passion- was for Brazil.

In order to demonstrate these ideas, this paper presents a broad review of Furtado's work.
