Abstract


The sanitary physician Carlos Alvarado Albert (1904-1986), accomplished a work that resulted in the eradication of malaria in Argentina. His work could come as an example of the thorny question of nationalism and internationalism in science. The authors of this work expound that the experience that the played the mentioned doctor, constitutes a remarkable sample of the inconvenience of transplanting on an automatic way any technical area and scientific effective procedures to other places, when he in fact what is convenient for the peripheral countries is the development of its own investigation.
