The role of scientific and technological developments in the well-being of current societies is fundamental at a political, economic and social level (Albornoz, 2012). However, not all governments perceive science and technology policies as a priority. Indeed, many neoliberal governments, mainly in developing Latin American countries, tend not to recognize this role, developing public policies that undermine the desirable development of scientific and technological research and its application. Such is the case of government management for the 2015-2019 period, which, as will be seen in the next few pages, defunded and dismantled the National Science and Technology System (Filmus, 2019). This paper will reflect on the public policies of said management regarding satellite technological development, in contrast to the policies promoted by the previous government. In the first place, the social value of scientific and technological development and public science and technology policies will be made explicit. Then, an overview will be given of the way in which these policies have been developed in the period 2003-2019. Finally, the ARSAT case will be analyzed and contextualized in said panorama, by virtue of accounting for the importance of the implementation of state public policies linked to technological development, in this particular case to the construction of geostationary satellites for telecommunications.

In the last two decades, the number and variety of policy instruments implemented in the field of science, technology and innovation in Latin America and particularly in Argentina has increased significantly. In this context, although new initiatives to promote the participation of women in the area have been created, they have been poorly incorporated into inventories and diagnoses in the area. This paper analyzes a specific type of policy instrument: prizes for women in science, in this case the L'Oréal-unesco prize in Argentina. The approach focuses on three main aspects from the point of view of both the research and the formulation of policies: the motivations of the winners to participate, the effects they identify after being distinguished and their opinion about the participation of women in science and its relation to the objectives of the award. The study is based on qualitative evidence through the combination of the analysis of official documents of the sponsoring agencies and the conduction of in-depth interviews with the prize winners.

We present a biographical and contextual analysis of the creative processes of leading Argentine scientists: Houssay, Leloir and Milstein. We analyze interviews, biographies, autobiographies and documents (works, speeches, letters) and several sources of information available in different formats: official websites and foundations, interviews, digital and paper texts and documentaries. We emphasize the role of exchanges with specialists as a conditioning factor of creative processes and significant advances in science. The biographical- contextual studies carried out indicate that interactions with teachers, mentors, tutors, colleagues and students favor the development of creativity and scientific activity in the cases analyzed. We also present analysis of other determinants of the creative process: contexts of work, ability to generate resources, educational background, knowledge available, sources of information, emotions, motivations and personality traits. Theoretical issues and previous studies on creativity in science are included in the first part of the text. Then, we describe significant results of the study. Finally, we argue about the relationship between communication, creativity and science. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
