Resumo
Los partidarios del crecimiento suelen argumentar que la ciencia, la tecnología y, sobre todo, la innovación son fundamentales para lograr un crecimiento económico constante e ilimitado. Muchas veces, se presenta a la ciencia como la fuente de un progreso que, gracias al poder transformador de la tecnología, tiene el potencial de ampliar los límites del planeta y evitar el desastre ambiental. Sin embargo, los estudios de Ciencia, Tecnología y Sociedad (CTS) demuestran que tanto la ciencia como la tecnología se construyen socialmente de acuerdo con los valores dominantes y las visiones del mundo en el que surgen. En este sentido, en este articulo argumentamos que los métodos actuales de desarrollo científico y tecnológico se basan en la cuestionable suposición de que el crecimiento económico es algo bueno y deseable. Para imaginar un mundo postcrecimiento, es necesario repensar el papel de la ciencia y la tecnología en la sociedad.
