“…Discourse communities are a way of understanding the pragmatic, institutional and discourse dimension of knowledge domains through domain analysis (Hjørland, 2002a;Marteleto;Carvalho, 2015). Furthermore, they are constituted as configurations formed from epistemic attitudes in the context of a domain (Hjørland 2002b, 257;Marteleto;Carvalho, 2015).…”

This study aims to analyze the intellectual foundation of the literature on knowledge organization published from 1972 to 2018 by authors enrolled in the Research Productivity Fellowship from Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico, in Brazil. The corpus of analysis is composed of 166 papers indexed in Base de Dados Referencial de Artigos de Periódicos em Ciência da Informação, which is a database that gathers the scientific literature published in Information Science journals in Brazil. It is an exploratory study that uses citation analysis as the methodological procedure, through author co-citation analysis and author bibliographic coupling. Fujita is identified as the most productive author, with 18 articles. Dahlberg is the most cited author, with 53 citations. The highest frequency of author co-citation is between Hjørland and Dahlberg; Tálamo and Kobashi. They are the seminal authors to the Brazilian scientists studied in this paper. The strongest relationships in the author bibliographic coupling network are between Lara and Bufrem, Lara and Guimarães, and Bufrem and Fujita. They cited 9 authors in common in the papers analyzed in this research. The conclusion is that there is an influence of European literature among the scientists addressed in this study. The results indicate the possibility of developing diachronic studies on the continuing influences of cited authors, especially from seminal authors, to analyze their permanence or transience over time.

“…The notion of «scientific field» was developed by Pierre Bourdieu. Bourdieu argued that to understand an intellectual production, analysis must not be limited to the content and social context of production (Marteleto & Carvalho, 2015). It must take into account the intermediate universe into which the agents (as Bourdieu named actors in the field) are incorporated.…”

Purpose/Thesis: This paper analyses the publications of two authors from different countries through a number of citations identified by Google Scholar. Jean Meyriat and Edson Nery da Fonseca are outstanding researchers in France and Brazil, respectively, both contributing to the formation and advancement of information science in their countries. The “traditional” bibliography and the development trajectory of their scientific achievements were considered in this analysis.Approach/Methods: The analysis of the researchers’ publications identified by Google Scholar based on their names helps to understand the role that search engines play in the evaluation of science and its effect on information seeking and in the evaluation of the scientific production. The qualitative research is based on a bibliological analyses focusing on the way in which the written production of the selected authors is reported and highlighted. The carried out study is exploratory in nature, so it proposes to raise questions and to emit hypotheses that could suggest directions for further research.Results and conclusions: The uniformity of controlled metadata used in traditional bibliographies make it possible to follow the progress of an author’s thought. The same is true of other activities he has performed in and out of the field and, it is also true for what has been produced about this author. Searching for information in Google Scholar can show a researcher’s production and publications about her/him in the order of citations but not in the order of the progress of the researcher’s scientific achievements or development of research focused on these achievements. Placed in the context of the analysis of the scientific field as it was defined by Bourdieu (1976), the observation of the visibility of the production Jean Meyriat and Edson Nery da Fonseca, two major actors in information science in France and Brazil , by Google Scholar, shows a tendency to underemphasize the role they played.Practical implications: The functioning of the scientific field has specific effects on the production of research. The search engines such as Google Scholar, made the research output more accessible on Internet. However, the criteria they prioritize, i.e., the number of citations, ignores important aspects of a scientific career. Qualitative analysis that considers the networks of sociability and the development trajectory of researchers’ scientific achievements may reveal relevant contributions to their scientific field.

“…O referencial teórico-conceitual pautou-se pela análise da comunidade e do ambiente de produção do conhecimento do ponto de vista de um campo científico e de um domínio de conhecimentos, utilizando uma perspectiva analítica, buscando uma complementaridade das dimensões social, cultural e histórica da informação na organização do conhecimento de Birger Hjørland e as condições sociais de produção do conhecimento de Pierre Bourdieu (MARTELETO;CARVALHO, 2015;MORADO NASCIMENTO;MARTELETO, 2008). O referencial operacional considera as noções de prática informacional e de redes socioacadêmicas para a visualização da construção discursiva, social, coletiva e contextualizada dos processos de produção, mediação e apropriação do conhecimento.…”

A pesquisa que aqui se relata estudou o processo de produção do conhecimento e as práticas informacionais em grupos de pesquisa na área da Governança da água, por meio das configurações das redes dos pesquisadores, a partir da compreensão da Governança da água como domínio complexo, ao requerer a participação integrada de diversas disciplinas na reflexão das questões atinentes à gestão das águas, tanto quanto de múltiplos atores do próprio campo científico e da sociedade, em perspectiva inter e transdisciplinar. Os conceitos analíticos de campo científico (Pierre Bourdieu) e domínio do conhecimento (Birger Hjørland; Hanne Albrechtsen; Rick Szostak; Claudio Gnoli; María López-Huertas,) são empregados para analisar as disputas, as linguagens, as interações, as estratégias práticas e discursivas atuantes nesse campo/domínio. Os conceitos de rede social e de prática informacional são utilizados como categorias operacionais na análise empreendida no terreno empírico da pesquisa, composto por um recorte de grupos de pesquisa, pesquisadores e suas publicações. A metodologia é quali-quantitativa, emprega a análise de redes sociais (ars) com base na produção científica informada nos curricula-vitae dos pesquisadores registrados na Plataforma Lattes do Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq), empregando-se recursos da ferramenta Script Lattes, e da aplicação de uma entrevista semi-estruturada aos líderes dos grupos. Os resultados demonstram que os processos de produção, mediação e apropriação de conhecimentos no campo/domínio da Governança da água devem extrapolar as fronteiras disciplinares da ciência, dialogando com múltiplos atores do próprio campo científico e da sociedade como alternativa na abordagem crítica de fenômenos complexos.
