RESUMEN
En la introducción se analiza el concepto de paradigma y se indica el sentido de una
investigación epistemológica en el campo de la ciencia de la información. La
primera parte menciona algunos paradigmas epistemológicos que han influenciado
a la ciencia de la información, a saber la hermenéutica, el racionalismo crítico, la
teoría crítica, la semiótica, el constructivismo, la cibernética de segundo orden y la
teoría de sistemas.
En la segunda parte se profundizan tres paradigmas epistemológicos. En primer
lugar se expone el paradigma físico. Partiendo de la teoría de Shannon y Weaver se
mencionan los experimentos de Cranfield y la teoría de la "información-como-cosa"
de Michael Buckland. En segundo lugar se analiza el paradigma cognitivo,
representado entre otros por B.C. Brookes, Nicholas Belkin, Pertti Vakkari y Peter
Ingwersen. Finalmente se expone el paradigma social que tiene sus orígenes en la
obra de Jesse Shera y está actualmente representado por las teorías de Bernd
Frohmann, Birger Hjørland, Rafael Capurro y Søren Brier. Finalmente se indican las
consecuencias prácticas de los paradigmas epistemológicos para el diseño y la
evaluación de sistemas de información así como para la investigación en ciencia de
la información.
