    The Colombian Standard Steam Locomotive: The transmission and circulation of technical knowledge and technology transfer. The case of British engineer Paul C. Dewhurst's designs and its manufacture at Škoda (1923-1929).

  • Original language description

    The steam locomotive became a technological innovation in the early 19th century, that not only had implications for technical development and engineering, but transformed social and economic life around the world; it reduced distances and facilitated the incorporation and articulation of markets into international trade. It also created a locomotive trade that connected distant geographies, diverse interests and put technological innovation in front of the search for economic benefits, and to adapt to the rapid changes and demands of customers who demanded a product according to their requirements. The article focuses on the presentation of this technical innovation in Columbia in the period between the two world wars with a link to the technical cooperation with the Czechoslovak company Škoda and with the important British engineer Paul C. Dewhurst.
