Ethical decision‐making for knowledge representation and organization systems for global use

Abstract: In this article, ethical decision-making methods for creating, revising, and maintaining knowledge representation and organization systems are described, particularly in relation to the global use of these systems. The analysis uses a three-level model and the literature on ethically based decision-making in the social and technical sciences. In addition, methods for making these kinds of decisions in an ethical manner are presented. This multidisciplinary approach is generalizable to other information areas a… Show more

“…Therefore and trying to contribute to a further reflection on the lack of literature on ethics in KOR it aimed to analyse the Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology -JASIST, Journal of Documentation, Knowledge Organization, Cataloging & Classification Quarterly, The Indexer and Ethics and Information Technology in the period between 1995 and 2004. The results reveal two complementary dimensions: one concerning diversity and the warrant of specification, which enables proof of the pertinence of the theoretical principles announced by Hudon (1997), Beghtol (2002Beghtol ( , 2005 and García Gutiérrez (2002), relatively to a transcultural ethics of mediation that reflects a diversity (fitted with a precision that, many times, passes by the dimension of multilingualism), making use, for such, of tools that may provide cultural warrant to the knowledge representation.…”

“…As discussões permitem considerar que os valores predominantes -e os problemas daí decorrentes -revelam parcialmente duas dimensões complementares: a do respeito à diversidade e a da garantia de especificidade, o que permite comprovar a pertinência dos princípios teóricos enunciados por Hudon (1997), Beghtol (2002Beghtol ( , 2005 e García Gutiérrez (2002), relativamente a uma ética transcultural de mediação que reflita uma diversidade (cuja precisão passa muitas vezes pela dimensão do multilingüismo) valendo-se, para tanto, de instrumentos que possam conferir garantia cultural à representação do conhecimento.…”

“…The call for papers for the 2009 conference, which was disseminated internationally, asked for contributions considering the ethical challenges of knowledge organization (called IO by the organizers). As is typical of introductory conferences, the papers covered the gamut but largely paid homage to Beghtol's notion of cultural warrant-the idea that cultures dictate mores as well as ontologies that must be accounted for in knowledge organization systems (see Beghtol 2005 and. In 2012 a second conference built on the first by extending the discussion, and by generating a body of research sufficient to allow visualization of the emerging themes identifying the intension and extension of EIO as a community of discourse.…”

“…Por outro lado, e procurando abordar a questão sob um ponto de vista mais axiológico, autores como Froehlich (1994), Gorman (2000), Koehler e Pembertom (2000), entre outros, têm abordado o fazer profissional como um todo e de forma mais verticalizada. Especificamente no âmbito da organização e representação do conhecimento (ORC), registram-se os estudos de Berman (1993), Hudon (1997), Beghtol (2002aBeghtol ( , 2005, Fernández-Molina e Guimarães (2002), García…”
