FUNDATIONS OF THE KNOWLEDGE ORGANIZATION

Foundations, knowledge organization, information science, ontology, semioticsAbstract
The evolution of Knowledge Organization Systems (KOS) has been guided by the problems that Information Science/Knowledge Organization (IS/KO) proposes to solve. When IC emerged in the 1950s and 1960s, the problem was the “information explosion”, the disorderly proliferation of scientific literature, addressed by the first Information Retrieval Systems (IRS) and thesaurus aimed at controlling the vocabularies used to consult these systems. The current, broader problem affecting today's society as a whole has been called Big Data. Question: Does IS/KO have theories, fundamentals, methodologies and technologies to develop KOS that are up to the challenges posed by society with the emergence of the Semantic Web and Big Data? What changes, theoretical and practical impacts will the emergence of these issues bring? The OC is currently being called upon to build models from different domains, the semantic vocabularies. What things exist in a domain, how to represent them? These are questions from Ontology and Semiotics. Objectives: This work suggests that comprehensive theories of Information and Knowledge, objects of IS/KO, cannot be obtained by IS/KO with their own theoretical bases developed so far. Methodology: foundational authors of IS/KO are reviewed in relation to the foundations, theories and objects of IS/KO. His statements are collated with high-level general theories such as Semiotics and Ontology. Conclusions: It is suggested that Peirce's Semiotics, with its categories of perception and consequent Epistemology, and Metaphysics, especially Ontology as a theory of the types of things that exist, including the social reality created by human culture, may be these theories.
