Agustín Vivas Moreno: El tiempo de la archivística: un estudio desus espacios de racionalidad históricahttp://www.ibict.br/cienciadainformacao/include/getdoc.php?id=1268&#38;article=684&#38;mode=pdfEnglish Abstract:The main objective of this proposal is to build up baselines for a CulturalHistory of Archival Science. For this purpose, it is based on a seminalaxis: the formulation of several “historic rationality spaces” which haveconformed the history of the fi eld. It can be said that a rationality spaceis a well determined and characterized combination of forces whichconform a system based on some historic homogeneity and whosemodel can be established. So, the conception is that there are four greathistoric rationality spaces in archival development: Archival science asan inductive and functional instrument, Archival science as patrimonialand legal-administrative fi eld, Archival science as a historiographicdevelopment and speculative theory, and Archival science in knowledgesociety. Its vagaries would be specifi ed through the extension of archivalscience scope, its scientifi c expansion, its insertion in InformationScience fi eld, determination of archives as information systems, andtechnological determinism. In methodological development of ourproposal, it is specifi ed the interoperation among several socioculturalforces, which have formed, in their historic course, the differentunderstanding archival science history spaces. In consequence, we inferas a main result that understanding spaces are basic for comprehensionof archival science cultural history, a ground-breaking concept.
