Resumo: This article discusses the concepts of social technology in a globalized world, in contrast with more recent views that advocate the adoption, by multinational com- panies, of organizational strategies focused on the base of the social pyramid. An analysis of the application of this new social technology concept is made through a case study. As a result, the innovative potential of these technologies was identified, in terms of efficiency, possibility of dissemination, and scale development, in order to solve problems that affect most people, such as those related to the demand for water, food, education, energy, and health. At the same time it should improve social inclusion and protect the environment.

Uma análise de aplicação desse novo conceito de tecnologia social é feita a partir de um estudo de caso. Como resultado, identificou-se o potencial inovador dessas tecnologias, em termos de eficácia, possibilidade de multiplicação e desenvolvimento em escala para a solução de problemas que afetam a maioria dos seres humanos, como os relacio- nados com a demanda por água, alimentos, educação, energia, saúde, entre outros, ao mesmo tempo que promovem a inclusão social e protegem o meio ambiente.Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV EBAPE)2008-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/rap/article/view/6666Brazilian Journal of Public Administration; Vol. 42 No. 6 (2008); 1069 a 1094Revista de Administração Pública; Vol. 42 Núm. 6 (2008); 1069 a 1094Revista de Administração Pública; v. 42 n. 6 (2008); 1069 a 10941982-31340034-7612reponame:Revista de Administração Públicainstname:Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)instacron:FGVporhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/rap/article/view/6666/5249Rodrigues, IveteBarbieri, José Carlosinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2021-11-17T20:52:29Zoai:ojs.periodicos.fgv.br:article/6666Revistahttps://ebape.fgv.br/publicacoes/rapONGhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.php||rap@fgv.br1982-31340034-7612opendoar:2021-11-17T20:52:29Revista de Administração Pública - Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)false
