The paper reveals the difficulties that Chilean society faces in appropriating scientific knowledge despite its intensive use of technology. In addition to emphasizing the importance of such appropriation for society as a whole, the author points to some of the underlying reasons of this difficulty, such as the poor quality of Chilean education, an extremely premature specialization -both in the case of students as well as in that of professionals- and the inaccessibility of the language of specialists, a fact that frequently requires resorting to poor intermediaries. The paper ends with some ideas about what scientists can do to achieve effective dissemination of their research results.
