Apresenta a área Ciência da Informação e seus objetos de estudo no mesmo movimento em que esses objetos de estudo são pensados na interrelação com a Educação, tornando assim a questão da autoria, do uso de periódicos educacionais e o funcionamento dos grupos de pesquisa em educação, novos objetos de pesquisa revitalizados pelo aporte discursivo e pela aproximação das áreas em questão.

The situation John Godfrey Saxe describes in his 19th century poem retelling the parable of the blind men and the elephant is not unlike the birthing pains of the emerging discourse between Western and Indigenous Knowledges. In this paper I propose that the "disputations" have nothing to do with such reified notions as "clash of ideologies" or "metaphysics," but are rather more semiological in nature. Semiotics, to which linguistics belongs, is an undiscovered country whose vistas may provide more efficacious roadmaps to meaningful communications between disparate knowledges – i.e., Western Science and Indigenous Knowledge. I propose to examine a specific case of a wildlife management issue in Nunavut, Canada, whose outcomes will determine not only the viability of a species but the quality of the relationship between Inuit Qaujimaningit and Governments. The original article is in Inuktitut. ; La situación que describe John Godfrey Saxe en su poema del siglo XIX, donde cuenta la parábola de los ciegos y el elefante, no es tan diferente de las dolorosas complicaciones presentes en el discurso emergente entre los saberes occidentales y los saberes indígenas. En este artículo propongo que las "disputas" entre estos saberes no derivan de conceptos codificados como "conflicto de ideologías" o "metafísica", sino son más bien de naturaleza semiológica. La semiótica, a donde pertenece la lingüística, es un territorio ignoto cuyos panoramas pueden brindar mapas eficaces para una comunicación más llena de sentido entre saberes distintos, en este caso la ciencia occidental y el conocimiento indígena. Propongo examinar un caso específico, el tema de la administración de la vida salvaje en Nunavut, Canadá, cuyos resultados determinarán no solo la viabilidad de una especie sino también la calidad de la relación entre Inuit Qaujimaningit y los gobiernos. El artículo original está en inuktitut. ; La situation décrite par John Godfrey Saxe dans son poème du 19e siècle, qui relate la parabole des aveugles et de l'éléphant, ne diffère pas des douleurs d'élaboration des nouveaux discours entre les connaissances occidentales et indigènes. Dans le présent article, je suggère que les « conflits » n'ont rien à voir avec les notions réifiées « d'affrontements idéologiques » ou de « métaphysique », mais sont plutôt de nature sémiologique. La sémiotique, à laquelle appartient la linguistique, est un pays inconnu dont les perspectives pourraient offrir plus de détails pour des communications significatives entre les connaissances disparates – par exemple, la science occidentale et les connaissances indigènes. Je propose d'examiner un cas spécifique, le problème de gestion de la faune sauvage dans la province du Nunavut au Canada, dont les résultats détermineront non seulement la viabilité d'une espèce, mais aussi la qualité de la relation entre Inuit Qaujimaningit et les gouvernements.

The aim of the present paper is to analyze the conception of science of Popper resorting to the metaphor with the game of chess that he uses in his work The logic of scientific research. We consider that by means of this metaphor it is possible to perceive that its conception of science is not reduced to the logical criterion of falsifiability as many of its critics let us envisage, nor even to define methodological rules to guide the practice of science. But the philosopher himself in establishing such analogy makes it clear the existence os rules is what science has in common with the game of chess. In our view, these rules, as well as the scientific criterion, are not sufficient to define the scientific practice, since it involves other elements such as: values, objectives, scientific community and context in which the research is carried out. Popper assumes these elements in his metaphor, but does not make them explicit. It is only in later works such as Conjectures and Refutations and The Open Society and Its Enemies that they are clearly defined. We, therefore, intend to bring to light those elements involved in the game of science in Popper in order to give greater clarity to his conception of what science is.

Eric Weil's modern society is characterized among other things by its conception of science. Both based on the principle of effective calculation, the understanding of its functioning and its limitations go together. Thus, analyzing modern society contemplates a discussion of the instance that functions as its self-consciousness: the conception of science that is its own, the social sciences, whose model is the science of nature. Modern science and society are understood within the scope of the Weil's category of condition. Here there is no appeal to an unconditioned principle. Therefore, the question of sense can not be made. However, it is not a question of renouncing the achievements of modern science. In Weil's view, however, it must be recognized that the question of sense can be properly made. This is because it must be put through philosophy. Our objective in the present paper is to discuss the relationship between modern society, modern science and sense. This is because if there is a science of an efficacius society there is also a science of sense: this is philosophy.
