RESUMO

The main objective of this proposal is to build up baselines for a Cultural History of Archival Science. For this purpose, it is based on a seminal axis: the formulation of several "historic rationality spaces" which have conformed the history of the field. It can be said that a rationality space is a well determined and characterized combination of forces which conform a system based on some historic homogeneity and whose model can be established. So, the conception is that there are four great historic rationality spaces in archival development: Archival science as an inductive and functional instrument, Archival science as patrimonial and legal-administrative field, Archival science as a historiographic development and speculative theory, and Archival science in knowledge society. Its vagaries would be specified through the extension of archival science scope, its scientific expansion, its insertion in Information Science field, determination of archives as information systems, and technological determinism. In methodological development of our proposal, it is specified the interoperation among several sociocultural forces, which have formed, in their historic course, the different understanding archival science history spaces. In consequence, we infer as a main result that understanding spaces are basic for comprehension of archival science cultural history, a ground-breaking concept.
