Abstract
This paper reflects on world’s economic trends and how Ecuador articulates to them. The purpose is to analyze how to delimit the relevance of science, technology and research activities given that in many aspects of the country’s development the main defects reproduce and continue to be undesired in the countries of the developed north, whilst the benefits of the several paths towards greater welfare are absent. To achieve this, the current global discussion on the role of science, technology and research was reviewed as an input to discuss the general principles that public policy should have in the field of bioknowledge. It is necessary, given the unlimited deficiencies that the country has in this area, to prioritize, as appropriate, the efforts of science, technology and research towards the fulfillment of basic needs of the population or the rights enshrined in the Political Constitution, as well as, to structure a double strategy that consists on supporting the most dynamic economic activities and those that use traditional production methods.
