Abstract: The aim of the thesis was to determine the dominant approaches in Knowledge and Information Society (KIS) Strategies of Latin American countries in the decade from 2000 to 2010. From a literature review two approaches to the SIC were found, the ¿technocentric¿ and ¿complex¿ one. Eleven Latin American strategies for KIS (Digital Agendas) were reviewed and the Uruguayan case was studied in depth to understand the factors that determine the consolidation of the two KIS approaches. Based on a qualitative research strategy two research techniques were performed, ninety interviews with qualified informants and actors of policies and the analysis of policy documents.
