Resumo: The phenomenon of recruitment of foreign scientists after the Second World War figured prominently in the scientific policy of the Peronist government in Argentina between 1946 and 1955, which sought to exploit the German-trained human resources to modernize and increase domestic industrial capacity. The aim of this study is to identify precisely what were the possibilities and limits of that particular strategy in this particular historical moment. If Werner Heisenberg and other outstanding figures who sought to coopt the Peronist government demonstrate the potential implicit in the investment of resources in this policy unprecedented scientific and technological development, the figure of Ronald Richter shows the boundaries of it. Isolated from the scientific community, ultimately, is what gives and takes away the scientific category, the Austrian physicist performance can be contrasted with the now classic analysis of Kuhn on the mechanisms that regulate the so-called "normal science". Through this opposition is seeking to test a possible explanation of how a "fraud" of the proportions of controlled fusion project Richter in the Huemul Island.

El objetivo de este trabajo es señalar justamente cuáles fueron las potencialidades y límites de esa particular estrategia, en ese particular momento histórico. Si Werner Heisenberg y otras figuras de relieve que buscó cooptar el gobierno peronista demuestran las potencialidades implícitas en la inversión de recursos sin precedentes en esta política de desarrollo científico-tecnológico, la figura de Ronald Richter muestra los límites de la misma. Aislado de la comunidad científica que, en última instancia, es la que da y quita la categoría de científico, la actuación del físico austríaco puede ser contrastada con los análisis ya clásicos de Kuhn sobre los mecanismos que regulan la llamada “ciencia normal”. A través de esta contraposición se busca ensayar una explicación sobre cómo fue posible un “fraude” de las proporciones del proyecto de fusión controlada de Richter en la Isla Huemul.Universidade Estadual de Londrina2009-11-24info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/antiteses/article/view/273910.5433/1984-3356.2009v2n4p693Antíteses; Vol. 2, n. 4, jul.-dec. 2009.
