State, social appropriation, ICTs, Mexico, poverty.Abstract
This article aims to present a theoretical approach to the role of the Mexican state in the social appropriation of information and communication technologies (icts) and the reduction of poverty, as part of a broader research whose objective is to empirically analyze that role. The framework of analysis presented suggests that when technology is appropriated on a large scale by society, it becomes part of the institutional and organizational framework of the state, and because of that the state itself can prevent or reproduce social problems such as poverty through it. In this line of thinking, we conclude that institutional analyzes of the states are required to be able to contribute to the construction of capacities to promote the social appropriation of icts and reduce social problems such as poverty.Downloads
