This book focuses on the policy transformations that affected the public scientific research system between 1980 and 2021, analysing public institutions and cross-cutting instruments that permeate the different organisations involved. Divided into three parts, the first deals with the issue of science and technology funding through a detailed analysis of the successive national public budgets for this purpose and the credits from the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) between 1979 and 1989. The second section focuses on the National Council for Scientific and Technical Research (CONICET) and the management of human resources. The main themes here are the careers of scientific researchers from its creation until 2003 and the federalisation policies of the organisation since 1983. Finally, the third part looks at the problem of the evaluation of human resources with an analysis of the official discourse on the issue and a study of the evaluation criteria and practices of the Programa de Incentivos a los Docentes Investigadores (PROINCE).
