The document discusses the Open Educational Resources (OER) movement in Latin America and whether it faces a paradox. While there are important technical implementations of open philosophies through projects, most do not incorporate the necessary legal frameworks to fully adopt open concepts. For example, some university open courseware later closed content due to legal concerns. Additionally, while educational repositories and policies support sharing, the specific open licensing strategy is still unclear. So the question remains - do these projects truly want to enable the "free" sharing and adaptation of resources as defined by open education?
