Abstrakt

Cel/Teza: Podczas projektowania systemów organizacji wiedzy, aspekt kulturowy wyznacza jedną z ram interpretacyjnych, do której zalicza się również wymiar społeczny i polityczny. Mają one istotny wpływ na rozważania na temat etycznej natury systemów organizacji wiedzy. W artykule scharakteryzowano kulturowe ramy etyki poprzez identyfikację kluczowych typów uprzedzeń w sys­temach organizacji wiedzy. Tego typu uprzedzenia zostały zbadane przez pryzmat etyki. Główny nacisk w rozważaniach położono na uprzedzenia strukturalne obecne w uniwersalnych schematach klasyfikacyjnych i innych językach informacyjno-wyszukiwawczych. Omówiono również problemy natury teoretycznej, przedstawiono wybrane przykłady uprzedzeń o charakterze kulturowym i ra­sowym oraz zaproponowano wybrane kierunki dalszych prac w tym obszarze.
Koncepcja/Metody badań: W artykule wykorzystano analizę i krytykę piśmiennictwa w celu identy­fikacji metod wykrywania stronniczości w systemach organizacji wiedzy. Na tej podstawie przeana­lizowano dwa języki informacyjne RAMEAU oraz LCSH w celu wykrycia przejawów marginalizacji, wykluczenia i stygmatyzacji w odniesieniu do francuskiego kontekstu kulturowego.
Wyniki i wnioski: Praktyczna wiedza z zakresu etyki informacji wśród pracowników bibliotek oraz innych instytucji informacyjnych jest niezbędna do skutecznego rozwiązywania problemów etycznych w systemach organizacji wiedzy.
Oryginalność/Wartość poznawcza: Zdefiniowano kulturowe ramy etyki i przedstawiono kilka przy­kładów, które pokazują trudności w eliminacji uprzedzeń w systemach organizacji wiedzy. Wyniki badań przeprowadzonych przez autorkę wraz z jej studentami na temat zakresu i rodzaju uprzedzeń w RAMEAU pokazały, że praca na rzecz eliminacji tych uprzedzeń dała pozytywne rezultaty, ale tylko w przypadku LCSH. W innych językach informacyjno-wyszukiwawczych opartych na LCSH przejęto i pozostawiono obecne tam różne typy uprzedzeń. Autorka postuluje systematyczną walkę z uprzedzeniami obecnymi w systemach organizacji wiedzy.
