Conflicting meanings and promises reflected in the existing literatura on biotechnology represent competing class interests which lead to unavoidable contradictions. Based on Thomas Kuhn's view of written materials as vehicles of diffusion and sources of legitimation of new paradigns. Don Idhe's concepts of amplification., reduction, and latent trajectory, and Critical Theory's method of immanent criticism, this thesis examines a major biotechnology aiming at (a) identifying majos meanings and existing contradictions between competing meanings and promises and actual developments/trends in R & D, and (c) projecting the likely implications of such contradictions for Third World Agriculture and Society. As a result of the existing contraciction - Social goals vs. Private Gains, SOcial problems vs. Technical Solutions, Industrial vs. Agricultural Revolution, Cooperation vs. Competition, and Control Over Nature vs. Control Over People - food production may be dislocated from developing to developed countries and from farming to industry; millions of people may loose their livelihood, the market for certain tropical products may be destroyed, and entire economies may collapse. |
