Resumo: The present article aims to use the thought of Álvaro Vieira Pinto in the scope of the philosophical reflection of the field of Science, Technology and Society (STS) education. The author's ideas were used to analyze the assumptions of STS education and the myths of science and technology identified by Auler (2002). They are: superiority of the technocratic decision-making model, the salvationist perspective of science and technology and technological determinism. The analysis was centered on the books Science and Existence and The Concept of Technology. As a result, it was found that the myths are concepts that have been disseminated and gradually used to underpin control strategies through the hegemonic centers. In the case of Brazil, the thinking of Álvaro Vieira Pinto is capable of contextualizing such myths in a broader perspective of exploitation of a undeveloped nation through technology transfer mechanisms that drain national wealth and block its development.

As ideias do autor foram utilizadas para analisar os pressupostos da educação CTS e os mitos da ciência e da tecnologia identificados por Auler (2002). São eles: superioridade do modelo de decisões tecnocráticas, a perspectiva salvacionista da ciência e da tecnologia e o determinismo tecnológico. A análise foi centrada nos livros Ciência e existência e O conceito de tecnologia (volume 1) publicados respectivamente em 1969 e 2005. Como resultado, averiguou-se que os mitos são concepções que foram sendo disseminadas e paulatinamente utilizadas para alicerçar estratégias de controle por meio dos centros hegemônicos. No caso do Brasil, o pensamento de Álvaro Vieira Pinto é capaz de contextualizar tais mitos numa perspectiva mais ampla de exploração da uma nação atrasada por meio de mecanismos transferência tecnológica que drenam as riquezas nacionais e impedem seu desenvolvimento.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina2023-05-22info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/alexandria/article/view/9026710.5007/1982-5153.2023.e90267Alexandria: Revista de Educação em Ciência e Tecnologia; v. 16 n. 1 (2023); 345-3661982-5153reponame:Alexandria (Florianópolis)instname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/alexandria/article/view/90267/53200http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessOliveira, Marcio2023-05-22T13:42:45Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/90267Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/alexandria/oai1982-51531982-5153opendoar:2023-05-22T13:42:45Alexandria (Florianópolis) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false
