Transferência de tecnologia e conhecimento sob a lente estruturacionista: uma integra??o temáticaDOI: 10.1590/S1676-56482009000200003 Keywords: technology transfer, knowledge transfer, structuration theory, social practices, technology and institutions. Abstract: this article aims to propose a theoretical framework that contemplates, from a structurationist perspective on technology, the understanding between technology transfer, knowledge transfer (technological or not) and social practices constituted from the use of technologies within organizations, in order to serve as an analytical intake to the dynamics between these themes. as knowledge, when comprehended as a technological resource, is inherently dynamic, situational, based on human agency and likely to be disseminated by technology transfer processes and by social practices, the “technologies-in-practice” perspective from wanda j. orlikowski is adopted here to help constructing the argument for this mentioned framework, stressing some of its underlying methodological implications, as well as the nature of its scientific and epistemological contribution to the relation between technology and institutions.
