Conteúdo: | The principal aim of this dissertation has been an investigation into the relationship between agricultural research technology and the accumulation of capital. The relationship that we explore is a more technical and specific expression of the commonly stated relationship between technology and society. Chapters 1 through 5 are consequently involved in the process of reformulating the problem and postulating the connections between technology and society in view of that reformulation. Chapter 6 serves as an empirical illustration of some of the connections that were postulated. The investigation into the relationship between technology and society involved the pursuit of three broad objectives that can be summarized as: (1) a reformulation of the problem: (2) the pulling together of a theoretical framework capable os broadly explaining some of the fundamental determinants in the relation; and (3) using Brazil's research organization, EMBRAPA, as an illustration, an empirical analysis of the foregoing theoretical discussions and their reformulations. From our efforts to push ahead these objectives several conclusions can be drawn.
